Obviously not everyone feels the same way that you do. The Daily Telegraph's readers have voted it their favourite.

I dont think anything about them, I have never flown them.
Its just just about everytime ive looked at flight arrivals and a bmi baby a/c has been on it, there has been at least one with a hefty delay. They have been in the news lots in the past years for problems with a/c shortages.

Flown them twice. The in-flight drink and snack selection, available for purchase is apalling. I like the fact you can pre-book seats though, its much more civilised.
The watery cup a soups are an insult. Why not offer decent sandwiches, people would pay for them, Im sure!
The scruffy cabin staff T-shirts, look like they have been washed on a slightly too warm cycle and the white has greyed.

Is the inflight snack selection all that matters?
Shouldnt you judge them on was the flight on time, friendly staff, comfortable seats, flight at good price etc etc.

I gave due credit to their pre-bookable seats, a welcome touch for no-frills.
Their call-centre, misleading price advertising, scruffy looking t-shirts, awful food and drink and delapidated aircraft interiors warrant criticism.

Why are you introducing such irrelevant issues, Tom?
We all know that the in-flight nosh is all that really matters. :rolleyes:
In fact, the only reason that airlines exist at all is to serve in-flight meals.

They were OK, but not outstanding. Both my flights were late, outbound, 45 minutes late, inbound, 1 hour 30 minutes.

I enjoyed my flights with bmibaby. Both on time & the crew on the outbound sector were brilliant.

The crew were the only positive thing really!!

Some of their advertising is inspired though. Flying from BHX last week, I saw a brilliant billboard with the slogan 'Birmingham is expecting a baby' Brilliant I thought!

That isn't new! They do that every time they announce a new base.

My brother, Daniel flew with them, a short delay but he enjoyed the flight!

danairboy did not mention only the inflight meals, so that is not all that matters to him. He did also talk about the scruffiness of the cabin crew.
Surely he is agreeing with you (which is something that rarely happens). You complained about the how punctual the airline is and he complained about watery cup-a-soups, which suggests that neither of you are particularly fond of the airline.

I find this very hard to believe when they have such a poor punctuality record and some of the bad things I read about them!
