I am lucky (?) enought to fly a lot on KL/ AF metal every year, and have therefore Platinum membership or Elite Plus in skyteam speak in the programme.

Flew Amsterdam - Minneapolis this week, in Y (eek) ! and have to say I was very dissapointed in the service. Cabin crew were rude and surly, EVERYTHING was too much trouble, and reminds me just why I avoid US carriers whenever possible.

Ok, I never expected to be treated like a business class passenger, but just common decency would have been nice instead of snarls and food and drinks being virtually thrown at me, despite my please and thank you's whenever decency required it.

Flying home tomorrow, Dallas - Atlanta - Amsterdam- Humberside, and have to say I am not looking forward to it in the slightest.
