Read reports on Air Scandic from this web site and started to worry.

Viewed their web site (www.airscandic.com)and cried!

Saw the aircraft at the departure gate and prayed!

But, you'll be glad to hear, all of this was unnecessary.

Yes this is an airline on a budget, but they do all the things that the big boys do.

Flight from Manchester - Larnaca:

On time and arrived early.

Luggage not lost.

Usual airline food.

Okay, their aircraft is a bit shoddy, a screw popped out of a bit of trim and rolled around on the floor in front of me on the way out and the door leaked during landing, but as another posting on this site states, both Airbuses were registered in the mid 1990's. And they obviously take safety seriously or they wouldn't be allowed to fly.

My advice is not to worry and book extra leg room, it is worth the £15.
