Home > Air Europa > Review

Taken October 2001 from London Gatwick to Madrid

Overall I would say that Air Europa is a bad airline compared to Spanair. Air Europa wouldn't stand a chance if it was compared to Iberia!

The flight was operated by an old 737-400 aircraft. There are no inflight entertainment systems, about 3 magazines for 180 people and uncomfortable seats.

I don't know why, but 737-400 airplanes don't seem to handle turbulence very well. I experienced very bad turbulence for about 1 hour and 15 minutes of the 1 hour 45 minuite flight.

The crew do speak quite a bit of English, but it's hard to understand them as they seem to talk quickly and mumble!

The drinks are free and they offer a limited duty free service.

I have flown Air Europa 6 times and the one thing which really annoys me about them is their food. On all of the flights I have been offered two little scabby cheese and raw ham sandwiches which are tasteless and disgusting. Air Europa really need to find a new catering company.

Air Europa flights are also always delayed by at least 40 minutes. I don't know why that always happens. Not very good if you are making a connection!

Overall I would say that I will never fly Air Europa again.
