One word of caution :
SN has one Avrojet, the oldest, with a problem. The temperature control doesn't work at all. Experienced it on my return from Marseille to Brussels 2 weeks ago. Beginning of the flight, we were freezing, many people took a sweater of a jacket. After about 20 minutes, it got really hot : guess close to 30 deg C. At the end of the flight I asked one of the FA what the problem was : he said they know but for one reason or the other can't or don't want to fix it. Strange to hear this.
I think they don't use this airplane very much. It was on the ground in MRS for almost the whole day.

But this is an exception : for the rest : good airplanes ,good services, good airport.
