Mere af det positive: er netop kommet til CPH fra SGN og havde en fin, fin tur med Aeroflot på en billig økonomi-billet og fuldstændig uden status:
Travelled SGN-SVO-CPH in one day, 19-12-2016, on B777-300ER and A320 respectively. First flight from SGN was almost full up to X-mas time with long queues at Check-in. I got the seat I wanted, later swapped as an FA had a proposal to a better option in the otherwise crowded economy class. Business and Comfort class had less than 30% load while economy >90%. Full service onboard. Alcohol limited to two wines which were only served at meal time – and they ran out after 5 hours. The red-wine was very, very good and full-bodied. 2 meal-services were offered on this 11 hours flight. In both cases were there two options for hot meals. Food was surprisingly good, managed to try all four hot dishes offered as passengers next to me offered me some of theirs as there were plenty. The scoop of the trip was somehow a surprise round of tasty, Russian ice-creams served quickly to all in the middle of the flight where blood sugar was low. Nice thought! Menu cards (in VN, SU, and UK languages), earplugs, slippers and eye-masks provided. Spacious seats (as Russians are big?!) with amble leg room, slept well on the floor. Power Outlets. WiFi proclaimed but did not test. Call buttons answered. FAs could be worse, could be better (at times quite hostile, at times very cooperative). Aircraft clean, staff were well dressed, and hard-working. I see the rising quality-trend of Aeroflot. IFE had huge amount of movies and stuff on personal monitors. Quite some of them could not work. That puzzled some passengers, but I found other things to do. The short flight SVO-CPH was uneventful, but was still serviced on board by given sandwiches, soft drinks and blankets. All flights briefly on time, apart from de-icing in Moscow, which caused 45 Minutes delay. Transfer in Moscow swift, quick, and easy. Baggage handled perfect and with care. For the price paid, 550 USD for a 6 months return-ticket, not even the Middle East carriers can compete, neither on price nor duration, though maybe on service. Two return trips in N-class provide enough miles for an upgrade with SU from economy to business class on a sector on a third trip. I was treated well onboard - even without any Skyteam frequent Traveller status – nice done SU! Will fly again.
