Zoek goedkope vluchten op XL Airways France

Voordelen: The crew were very kind, and the flight was not full, giving us a little more room.

Nadelen: Sound only played in one earphone during the entertainment. (I tried two different pairs.) Food other than wheat-based would be preferable.

Twice flew;Twice pleased

Voordelen: The crew are very good at what they do, are polite and helpful. The space is average but you can fully lift the arm chair should you like to sit with feet tucked as I do. There's no foof or frills but leaps ahead of United or American and even delta. And very importantly there is no feeling of being nicked and toned at every possible moment. With XL airways what you see is what you get, but if a surprise is to occur; chances are it's for the better. I should not fail to give a big thank you to the check in staff, they too were wonderful, and the free check in and carry on too; wonderful!

Nadelen: The food is not so great, maybe a bit worse. The onboard entertainment has a lot of bugs to work out, and some of the planes had no outlets, so pack power banks.

Pleasantly surprised

Voordelen: Ease of check-in, considering it could only be done at counter, not online or at kiosks. Knowing this, we did make the effort to arrive at the airport early. They actually began checking passengers in 30 minutes before the scheduled time. Personnel were cordial and very efficient. First bag (20 kilos max) was free (unusual for discount airline); also allowed one carry-on and one personal item. Ample room in overhead bins for carry-on luggage. Flight staff was attentive and pleasant. Blankets and headphones provided; two meals were served. Boarding and disembarking went quickly. Oh, and did I mention the price for my nonstop flight from LAX to CDG? $175. That is not a typo.

Nadelen: Meal quality was sub-par. Seats were cramped, but typical for economy class (despite their size, the seat material was actually rather comfortable).

Voordelen: The plane was clean. Food was good. It's a low cost airline and I read so many bad reviews about them when in reality it's really not that bad unless you are a high maintenance and you complain about eveything all the time.

Voordelen: The low cost and the pleasant attitude of the crew. Its a veery decent flight, just keep your bag weight within reason and don't misspell anything on your reservation or attempt to make changes and it''l be as smooth as can be expected.

Nadelen: Flight was delayed, food was inedible, website is bad - can't checkin online, onboard entertainment is boring, no air vents, luckily I brought my own fan.
