Our worst Airline / flight experience – Flight from Istanbul to Bishkek
After online check-in my seat was changed a couple of times and suddenly my seat was even questioned. So I had to wait until the very end of boarding. Once on the plane the Pegasus flight attendants were totally incompetent and unfriendly – Not able to handle a overcrowded airplane and still pushing me from one seat to another.

Azerbaijani tourist visits require new flights

Azerbaijani tourist visits require new flights
Azerbaijan, Baku, Jan. 13 / Trend A. Akhundov

The difficulties with air communication hamper Azerbaijani tourists from visiting southeast Asia, Latin America and the U.S. Improvements are required, head of the Azerbaijani Tourism Association Nahid Bahirov told Trend today.

“Today, there are potential tourists willing to visit these regions, but due to problems with air communication they postpone their trips until better times,” he said. “It would be useful to establish air communication in these areas to develop the tourism. People go to Europe, Turkey, UAE, because there it is easy to reach them and it is time to innovations in this sphere.”

Azerbaijani Culture and Tourism Ministry department head Aydin Ismiyev told Trend on Friday that the opening of flight on these routes is not profitable, because there is low flow of tourists.

TAP Voted Best Airline in Europe

TAP Voted Best Airline in Europe
The Portuguese national carrier TAP Portugal received the Best Airline in Europe award at the 8th annual gala awards ceremony of the American magazine Global Traveler in Beverly Hills, California.

TAP was among 30 internationally-renowned airlines considered for the award and the vote came about as the result of an annual survey known as the GT Tested Reader Survey which is sponsored by the magazine.
The award is of great significance since it is based on a survey of more than 36,000 frequent flyers and business passengers who are invited to nominate their favourite airlines in the area of travel and tourism.
This year also marks the 8th year of the survey, which is highly valued for the fact that the winners are chosen objectively and impartially by the magazine’s readers, who answered questionnaires printed in the magazine, online, by post or e-mail between 1 January and 31 August 2011.
Global Traveler readers are frequent flyers who rack up an average of 16 international flights and 16 domestic flights per year.
In addition to this prestigious award, TAP Portugal received more recognition that night from another competition sponsored by the same publication, the 2011 GT Wines on the Wing, where TAP won the prize for Best Red Wine Served in International Business Class.
