Swissair is the best I've been on. The service was nice. they gave you hot washcloths to freshen up toward the end of the flight. The food was decent, and they gave out this amazing chocolate as we departed the plane. I think of that chocolate often.


The worst airline ever is aeroplot (Russian, used to be Soviet Airlines). The seats are crammed in so tightly that even a skinny little kid had trouble getting his legs to fit between the front of his seat and the back of the next one. The seats aren't even bolted down either. Come to think of it, I don't think there were any seat belts as well. There was no food or beverage service, and the stewardesses only function was to stand there at the entry hatch and scowl at us as we boarded. At some point during the flight, one of our tenors got up to use the bathroom only to find it full of stewardesses in the middle of a card game. They scowled at him and told him to go away. So apparently there is no bathroom service as well.


The plane shook and rattled like it was about to fall apart the whole way. Scariest flight of my life.
