Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Not mechanically sound
I flew on Helios Airlines from Manchester to Cyprus several years ago and so i am in a position to comment on their service.
The plane was a very cramped 737 which was clearly dated. There were only 6 others in the fleet at the time. The leg room was very cramped and the decor of the plane left much to be desired. What was most disturbing was the funny whirring noise coming from the engines throughout the duration of the flight. The service provided by the cabin crew was average but the catering was of a poor standard and portion sizes were smaller than average. A year after I travelled with Helios Airways, one of thier planes crashed over Grecce which wasnt very reassuring for future travel purposes.
Overall, this was a budget flight and I recieved the service that I paid for as it was a cheap holiday but I will not be recommending them to anyone reading this nor will I travel with them again due to these planes being dated and not mechanically sound in my opinion.
Summary: Not recommended
