Advantages: Cheap,

Disadvantages: Dangerous

I have taken bad flights before (mainly due to delay or weather) but I found this flight TERRIFYING.

It is a very cheap option to get from Singapore to loads of places round Asia. Flight leave from Singapore airport, with very easy access to the city. I took a flight from Singapore to Chennai India and then from Chennai to Delhi. The second flight was miles better, but by then it was too late to change my opinion.

The booking I made over the net and it was all very simple. What wasn't great is that due to a Visa issue I had to change the flight. The charge to do this - despite going for a flight of a lower cost double what chagning a flight with another airline did 2 days before I flew!

The check-in was smooth, but the flight itself not so. The plane wasn't very clean at all, but I accepted this as you get what you pay for!!

The staff were perfectly pleasant and greeted everyone. It was when they started explaining how to work the emergency door (I was on one of those rows) that I got worried - apparently in an event we would have to open it as there weren't enough crew. My worries intensified to fever pitch as the door rattled and made noise the entire flight. The pressure didn't feel right at all and I was convinced we were going to plunge. I have had severe ear problems and tinitus since. I would never fly with this airline again.

Summary: I like being able to hear. Never again.

It is normal that in case of emergency you have to open the exit door if you sit next to it. What do you expect the crew to do, wait till you got out of your seat first?

That is why the crew will always ask you if you speak/understand their language well enough to follow commands in case of emergency.

Sor ry to hear about your ear problems!
