Rejste 5 ben fra Rwanda til Danmark. Paa de billigste economy billetter markedet kunne opdrive. Som sædvanligt masser af eventyr og nye oplevelser. Min kuffert klarede det ikke, KQ har svært ved at lable baggage korrekt naar der er mere end 3-4 ben - men de prøvede i det mindste. Kufferten er netop nu her til formiddag arriveret i Kastrup og kommer med bil her til Amager i eftermiddag. 5 dages forsinkelse er jo ikke noget at klage på....RJ er et interessant bekendtskab, men narrowbodies er ikke optimalt med fyldte fly (enden af sommerferien) uden IFE. De kunne ikke engang låne mig en god bog, så jeg var henvist til "the Amstel Experience". De 3 lounger besøgt var alle aldeles glimrende og AMM er perfekt for transit. Fik sovet godt i Ahlan loungen i T1 i Dubai. Publiceret paa SKYTRAX:
1. Kenya Airways Economy 8/10
Kigali-Bujumbura-Nairobi-Dubai on 31 July 2019 on an old E190 and on a newer B787, respectively. Faultless travels, first flight to NBO via BJM on time, 2nd flight delayed 70 Minutes. Check in KGL was fine but slow. Could not check in my baggage to final destination but at least they could transfer it beyond DXB on another airline, which made me OK. Service onboard fully acceptable, 3 types of small, cold sandwiches on brown bread. Wines of RSA origin, acceptable but not memorable. Transit in NBO smooth, jetbridge deboarding and boarding. Flights were both full in economy cabin, but service inboard was managed well and thoroughly. No IFE on first flight. Detour to BJM very annoying. FAs were fine, nothing too much trouble. Due to delay on 2nd flight they granted me access to the wonderful Pride Lounge in NBO, that was a nice move, and I enjoyed really and filled up my depots. I love this lounge due to its space, curved form, good food, and views of tarmac. Second flight had IFE, good food, and generous drink rounds. I had lamb, 1 of 3 options for hot meal. FAs were in splendid mood – twice I ordered a drink and both times I got one extra “as bonus”. Seats with amble space. Ticket was cheap and provided excellent value for money.
2. Royal Jordanian Economy 7/10
Tried for my first time this airline 1 August 2019 from DXB over Amman to Copenhagen. Both aircrafts were on older, worn but fairly clean A320 machines. No IFE apart from flight trip map displayed on shared monitor in front of cabin sections. Individual screens were installed but not activated. Trip went well and flights on time. Onboard, food was mediocre and no hot food were offered, only sandwiches, cakes, and drinks. They served a good redwine: Jordanian River (Shiraz 2018). Seat spacious. Ticket not cheap. Best part were the good lounges in Dubai (Ahlan lounge T1) and in Amman (Crown lounge). They were both splendid. However, lounge access was not granted from my ticket but from my elite status on another airline in Oneworld (Qatar Airways). I had a missing luggage issue from previous flight on which I was well informed while onboard prior to departure from Amman. Amman is a small and cozy airport. It could be a very good airline but need to improve flight hardware, cabin tidiness, food quality, and increase options, and include hot meals. Missing IFE also becomes an issue for the last flight which lasted almost 5 hours.
