Carrier company: travel with comfort

Choosing a tour operator, country, hotel and the tour package itself, few people think about the carrier. But it is from the company that delivers to the desired resort, the passenger's comfort in flight depends. Moreover, some flights can reach more than a dozen hours on the way without transplants and refueling.

Will the flight be comfortable? How comfortable are the aircraft operated by the airline? Is there enough food on board? How often do delays occur? All these questions are important. And they require the same study when selecting a tour, as well as other nuances.

History of the airline and main characteristics

Royal Flight has been flying for 25 years. It was formed in 1992 and was originally called "Abakan-avia". Specialization was cargo transportation on Russian and international air routes.

Renaming took place in 2014 in connection with the purchase of the airline by one of the tourist holdings, which includes two Russian companies Coral and Sunmar. After that the company began to carry out passenger flights.

To date, its airport is Sheremetyevo. And home, as before, Abakan.

How, seeing the plane, can we say with certainty that this is the Royal Flight airline? Photos of aircraft give an opportunity to judge the brand livery. In corporate colors, the tail feathers of an iron bird, some wing elements and engine turbines are usually painted.

Royal Flight, the airline "Coral": reviews about the tour operator

Coral in the market of the tourist industry for more than 20 years. For the time of its work, millions of tourists have successfully traveled, many of whom now use only this operator's tour packages.

Feedback about the company's work is mostly positive. Tourists put excellent estimates of the organization of flights, accommodation and escort.

The main complaints are the delays in charter flights and the specific customs of the countries visited. On the first point, everything is explained by the conditions of transportation. Passengers, as a rule, are warned about this when booking a tour package. The second point speaks about the unpreparedness of the tourist to travel.

Royal Flight: reviews of passengers

As a charter carrier, the Royal Flight airline receives negative feedback from passengers mainly due to delays in flights. Indeed, quite often the aircraft depart late, but not more often than other similar carriers.

Approximately 70% of passengers complain about the tightness in the aircraft, focusing on how little space between the seats. It is impossible to fold the seat because it completely falls on the person sitting behind. And if in the case of a short flight this is not critical, then flights over 5 hours are very difficult to carry.

Often passengers are not satisfied with meals on board. At the moment, when flying to 5 hours, it consists, as already mentioned, of a sandwich and coffee, and over 6 hours of hot dishes are available to choose from. For people traveling with children, it is extremely inconvenient, especially considering that before that, there may have been delays in departure. Therefore, it is worth to tune into a flight without food or to purchase seats in the business class, where the menu is more diverse.

All without exception, note the excellent attitude of staff to the airline's customers. Its employees are very polite, sympathetic and attentive. Flight attendants, if possible, smooth out all the inconveniences of the flight.
