That is not really a fair statement. Aeroflot may be a bit rough around the edges sometimes, but they have a good international safety record. Their cabin service and seat pitches are also vastly superior to many Western companies in F and C, and in Y they easily hold their own.

When did you last fly SU?

I do agree, however, that the picture is different on domestic flights within Russia, particularly on routes which do not operate via a major city. When I have to choose between SU and another Russian operator such as Transaero, I generally choose the latter.
