When flying over England on the bmi's flight from Moscow yesterday we were caught up by a plane resembling the BA's aircraft I had seen in Moscow (left). It was about 10 minutes behind us on the runway there, and now flying in parallel course it caught up and even overtook us (right). If it was the aircraft then it took it 3 hours to catch up ;)
I've already screenshot the funny way flybmi.com defaults client's age in the 'personal details' section. Now that I've actually flown their long-haul flight I'm quite happy with the service. Not long ago they started flying from Heathrow to Domodedovo (airport in the south of Moscow) and back in alliance with Russian Transaero airline. Probably too few people flying from Russia to London are aware of this service, as the cabin was only half full. Or probably people are too conservative to switch from traditional stuff, like BA and Aeroflot. As for me, I'd recommend at least to try bmi's Moscow direction. It's definitely as good as Aeroflot and better than BA comfort and service-wise. And it cost me 20% less than the cheapest option from Aeroflot and 30% less than the cheapest from BA!
