rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author torlatorla - Coming back from Puerto Vallarta to Vancouver, although arriving at the airport several hours before the flight, my wife and I were arbitrarily assigned two seats with no aisle access. The window seat was so cramped even an average sized person couldn't...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author patticake50 - I paid for 6 tickets from Orlando to Toronto and was treated horribly by the Air Transat ticket agents.

Sun, 14 May 2006 17:26:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hochstedder - Air Transat: For Those on a Budget I flew Air Transat because it is cheap. You'll be hard-pressed to find a return flight to London Gatwick (LGW) from Toronto (YYZ) for under $500 (CAD), let alone the $319 (no taxes) I payed about three weeks before...

Tue, 3 Jan 2006 01:41:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author percybarber - We have flown AT to UK 1-3 times a year for past eight years, and have got what we paid for. The food is just average airline fare. Whenever I board I "make nice" with the FAs- they're human beings and it's really a very boring job.- Try it, it works...

Air Transat: Must Improve

Fri, 5 Aug 2005 19:03:55 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author john-pereira - Journey from UK to Toronto was OK apart from smallest seat pitch ever.

Air Transat: Functional rather than comfortable

Fri, 27 May 2005 18:03:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author european58 - Used Air Transat to get to Canada in July 04, mainly because it served my local UK regional airport and was comparatively inexpensive.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mark42 - If price is your only consideration, then fly Air Transat. If your health is at all a concern, then stay far away. Three weeks after flying with Air Transat, my back is still killing me. I'm having trouble sitting, standing, walking, you name it. My...

Wed, 30 Mar 2005 16:47:15 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mgutscher - With Air Transat you get exactly what you pay for. 1. I've arrived at my destination each time within an hour of the original ETA and once a few minutes early. 2. The FA’s on Air Transat were pleasant but rushed and a bit distracted. 3. As I...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author concerned228 - Air Transat makes a number of specific promises to passengers who pay extra for Club Transat class service. We paid a hefty premium for Club Transat service on flights TS 228 and TS 259 between Toronto and London-Gatwick. It cost us extra, but 8...

Air Transat: THE DEVIL YOU KNOW......

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author JAMES23 - I will admit I have a sort of love hate relationship with Canada’s self styled largest charter airline. It gets me where I want, usually, but to be honest I kind of wish there was some other way of getting there.
