So I was travelled for another vacation in Kos Island, Greece (KGS).
These were my flights:
BZ (BlueBird Airways) TLV KGS Y M82
6H (Israir) KGS TLV Y A320
I arrived to TLV Airport at 6:40 AM and I passed the check-in and the security checks very quickly. I excepted to fly on a 734 but when I asked the check-in worker, she told me that the plane is MD83. It should be better than a boring 737-400!
I had an hour until boarding to do some spotting:

The Romanian cabin crew was really nice and we served by soft drinks. It was great to chat with one of them.

  • Exotic plane/airline! The plane looked a little dirty to me. Was it? Also, Is BlueBird good?

    Flightreport.com manegement, If you're reading this. Please add safair to your list of airlines. I'm flying with them, and doing a report soon, I think.

  • Thanks for reporting this flight,

    This flight is not what can be expected normally,

    Old MD80, ex-Spanair plane, romanian crew in a greek plane :)

    I love pics from TLV, really beautiful city

    See you

  • Thank you very much for this interesting report on a very rare airline

  • Wow that cabin looks so disgusting to me. Some lights are not even working. If this aircraft is maintained as as worse as it is cleaned this is scary.

    But thank you for this report!

  • Thanks for this unique report on an exotic airline and rare aircraft (in Europe, anyway, not here in the US).

    Is the 707 in TLV an Israeli military plane?

    And yikes, that Mad Dog looks ancient inside and out!

    Thanks for sharing!
