OMG! Flying on Uzbekistan was one of the worst flights I've ever taken. Period. There were no seat assignments at all -- not even for First/Economy -- so when it was time to board it was a frickin' free for all with people throwing bags and literally fighting for the frist class seats. Imagine playing musical chairs at a juvenile detention facility.
Then everyone chain smoked the whole flight. I think the plane was a Ilyushin with a seat pitch that seemed to be about 15" total.
Now that I've ranted, I'll admit that the flight was over a decade ago and I'm sure (hope!) a lot has changed...
peace,
