Wow, that's half the usual price. If you don't mind non "non-stop" flights, that's a great deal. Let us know how you experienced that flight, please !

Ukranian national airline - not all the reviews on airlinequality.com are negative, but I'm glad I can afford Thai Airways.

Looks interesting but after reading the reviews - http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/aerosvit.htm ,think I'd rather pay the £120ish more to go with Emirates.

On their website they quote £700 for a business class return which is also very cheap (depending on the quality of their product I suppose).

rather go with etihad or emirates

Aircraft was Boeing 767 (UR-VVG) with rather used interior. We were assigned on our seats on AB section (near window). From the very start we noticed that electric in- seat appliances were not working (light, attendant call etc), as it revealed after - it was not working during all flight including audio channel which was rather boring during 9 hours flight not only for us but for all people seating on AB seats in economy class. Flight attendants were rather gloomy and not friendly. It seems that Aerosvit makes no selection when hires people on FA positions. Although announcements were made in Ukrainian and English, attendants were speaking Russian with us, even when my husband was talking to them in Ukrainian (they were not even trying to respond in Ukrainian). On return flight from BKK to Kiev, when we asked senior FA for some medicine due to head ache we were offered with help, we noticed that TV monitors were not working in business class compartment ( I suggest it may be offensive for passengers who have paid much more money than economy class passengers). Food was rather average, especially on return flight, it was untasty. Drinks are OK with rather wide choice in economy. Overall, if Aerosvit wants to improve their results and earn more money in future, they have to pay more attention to quality of service and equipment onboard. I hope that Aerosvit management regularly revises passengers comments and will make service better. Otherwise, it will not succeed in upcoming competition with European and Asian airlines on this route.

You may find the flight crew there, downing a few vodkas to steady their nerves before takeoff. 5555555555
