Bad Points
None really.

General Comments
I have used Palmair many times over the years. I found them excellent in all respects. A very friendly company to book with. An 'orderly' boarding procedure works well. The included meals were good, the aircraft clean and comfortable. My only concern is the continued use of the Boeing 737-200 series aircraft which is getting 'long in the tooth'. Most nations have dispensed with this type series I understand.

Not withstanding the high standard of maintenance carried out here in UK, I now select companies using more modern aircraft or later NG series Boeings.

It annoys me when people rubbish the classic jets all the time, like the reliable 737-200, and it always has to be the boring new stuff. It's not the age of the plane that matters, it's the maintenance.

I found this review not helpful because...modern plane does not mean less problems just like a modern car more to go wrong just think toyota

I disagree with this review because... there is nothing wrong with the use of older aircaft, I choose them because it's far more interesting to fly back in time, on aircraft that had more character, from the halcyon days of jet travel. The 737-200 is a very proven aircraft, 40 years since the first and 20 years of production can't be wrong!
