Erm, is there a point to this? Often interesting to read different experiences but an arbitrary list of airlines is somewhat mind-numbing. Genuinely just wondering what the reasoning behind it was. Hope it helped anyway.

Lochroy · 28/07/2019 23:09

I'm enjoying reading the lists! It's interesting and making me realise things like I'd forgotten Aerlingus and TWA from my list. Brittania rings a bell too but I'm not certain about that one.

I'm in happy bubble of memory lane remembering places I've been. Sorry if that's boring!

I'm not sure which airline provided the 16 seater plane between Arlanda, Stockholm and the local Swedish airport further north. That was fun.
