I found this airline to be very disorganised and not pleasant to travel with. There was 1 1/2 hour delay going and coming back was delayed by 1 hour (they never actually informed us of this delay, we just had to wait and see what happened.) There was delays with checking in, with no instructions com ...

We flew Cork-Santorini, out on 27 th May 2008 back on 10th June 2008. Despite flying between two Eurozone countries ( yes Ireland uses the Euro) the in-flight food was priced in sterling and although Euros were acceptable, change could only be given in sterling.
On both legs of the journey the food ...

Flew with XL to St Lucia on 27th May with a degree of trepidation given the previous reviews I had read. However the flight was on time, we were given extra legroom seats free of charge and the cabin staff were very helpful. The food was 'charter airline' type food but given the prices of the flight ...

I think that for the price you do get value for money, there have been a lot of bad reviews about this airline which I think are unjust, perhaps we were just lucky but I would definitely use them again

The flight I experienced out of Bristol to Rhodes on Saturday 24th was a disaster. The plane suffered a tail strike, diverted to Gatwick for repairs, then changed crew, a total delay six hours.

At Gatwick we sat at the gate for hours being asked not to go to the main terminal (about 20mins), then f ...

Our tickets didnt arrive, the flights were dalayed two hours on the way out, after finally boarding we were then informed ...

Having had a bad experience flying with XL for the first time last year, I tried unsuccessfully to find flights with someone else this year. Lack of availability meant I reluctantly booked the same flights as before with XL. Never again - their service has actually got worse rather than better. Desp ...

Well, after reading some reviews on here before my recent holiday to Antigua, I was really really worried. I had resigned myself to hours worth of delays, rude staff, no food and it sounded like I would be lucky to even leave Gatwick!
Now two weeks later, I have to write a review to counteract the ...
