Cattle Class or First Class - you decide!
Review of Virgin Pendolino by
marymoose99
Advantages: Pretty fast, reasonable service, wine has high alcohol content
Disadvantages: Not always reliable, cattle class is crowded, tickets are expensive
I seem to spend a great deal of time on trains, mainly due to the fact that I don't 'do' driving. But in a funny sort of way I actually quite enjoy it. I've already reviewed my experiences on Northern Rail which I use for my daily commute.

Quick review of Moto Motorway Service Stations
Review of Moto Motorway Service Stations by
HOPEFUL59
I am horrified using services for the first time in ages that they charge after 2 hours of parking."Take a break,tiredness kills" says the government then takes money from the likes of Moto to rip people off whilst they try to be safe.A truck driver told me he had to pay £35 of his own money to sleep over night!Thesedrivers do important work,they can kill when driving if tired. Another example of caring UK.In Europe the rest areas are free,the cafes are clean, unlike the filthy Burger .king we used at Moto near Bristol,tables and floor soiled with food.The prices are expensive ,I advise others to go off the motorway for services to avoid extortionate prices both for fuel and food.

Quick review of James Villas
Review of James Villas by
buffetpants
Have only found this review site after experienceing first hand how poor James Villas service can be. Be very wary that James Villas use 3rd party management agencies in some cases as we found to our cost on the Costa Blanca after renting a villa in Denia. Whilst we had the services of James Villas reps the maintenance was by a company called BTB. On arrival our initial choice villa had no hot water, filthy decor and furniture, the whole house smelt of mildew, problems with mould and the pool filtration system did not work. BEWARE older Spanish properties have no damp proofing and this causes serious issues if renting as we did at the end of the season in October.

Quick review of easybus.co.uk
Review of easybus.co.uk by
yhdortbsde
i recently made a trip with easybus from fulham broadway to gatwick airport. the driver was very polite and professional, (and very good looking by the way, i think he said his name was david!, mmmmm) nice shades hahahahaha. i found the whole experience very calming, he played relaxing music, he drove safely but expertly and gave a wonderful little pre-trip speech. i will definately use this service more often. WELL DONE EASYBUS for an excellant value for money service. Miranda Ogilvy.

Quick review of Aeroflot
Review of Aeroflot by
Baldhunky
Lost son's luggage, never found, waited the time for them to find it and when they cound;nt sent in claim. They sent letter telling me that after 21 days time it was too late to file. Medical breathing apparatus and life necessary medicines in luggage. Wound up in hospital for most of the time. When he was ready and able to leave, they would not even give him any special consideration in seating. We did exactly what was required of us and they did everything wrong. Of course no compensation for lost luggage or $4300 in hospital expenses incurred directly due to their incompentence. This is not a customer service issue, it's criminal.

Disadvantages: Seems to good to believe!
i must admit I was slightly apprehensive the first time I used megatrain; i couldn't quite believe that they could sell tickets for so little, and not being issued with a ticket was off-putting. However, I'm a sucker for a good deal so bought return tick ...

Review of STA Travel by

Advantages: Staff in STA branches are friendly and helpful.
Disadvantages: STA doesn't actually book your tickets!
My opinion of STA as a responsible and reliable travel agent no longer exists. I associate STA with incompetence.
I recently went on a gap year and booked my flights through STA as I'd heard good things about them, and although aware STA isn't the chea ...
