OK A310 goes mechanical
CSA (OK)
Regular flight between PRG and JFK on A310-300 returned twice to PRG due to mechanical trouble over the weekend, resulting in a 28 hour delay. The passengers are entitled to EUR 600.
Those A310s are getting old and - in my opinion - now almost as bad as A300.
I am not paranoid but I'd rather not fly A300s, or DC10s and MD11s for that matter. A310s are borderline, I guess I would still go.
On the other hand, I love A319s, 320s, 321s and 330s. When I travel to PRG from YUL, I usually route myself via FRA on Air Canada, flying on A330 in winter and B767-300 in summer.
Anybody on that delayed flight?
