Frosteee's review of British Midland

“This Jan we went on a package holiday with Neilson to...”

★★★★☆

written by Frosteee on 05/10/2009

This Jan we went on a package holiday with Neilson to Swedish ski resort Are. The charter flight that came as part of the package was operated by British Midland and took us to the nearest airport, Ostersund.



I was pleasantly surprised that we weren't flying Rynair or Easyjet as I'm not a fan. The biggest benefit over the budget airlines was that we could fly from Heathrow - no trekking out into the sticks for Luton or Stansted at 5am.



The check-in staff were efficient and there was only a very short queue. The flight left on time in both directions and everything was really easy. Despite opting out of paying for an in flight meal we still got fed! The in-flight staff were polite and helpful too.



The one scary moment was the realisation on final approach that we were going to land on ice and snow! A little scary but nothing went wrong. It was one of the smoothest landings I've ever experienced in fact.



Our entire package holiday was £300 each including transfers and the accomodation so I think this representing great value with the flight probably accounting for less than half of that.
