After our Madeira films, we decided to go for some holidays in the Red Sea, but this time, fly directly to Sharm el Sheikh Airport. At the time, the best and cheaper way was to go to the UK.
I saw this new charter airline, with very new airplanes, and decided to give it a go!
BUT!
At the Gate, there was this horrendous Company hag, those kind of women who think that by the fact they have a position are entitled to philtre all their tremendous sexual frustrations to other people forgetting they are in fact Costumers! She made a tremendous scandal and didn't allow my underwater camera housing in the cabin, what I did so so many times ago, in so many different Airlines! I had to put it inside the cargo hull, as a result, it got broken and made me loose 2 days of filming, just to have it repaired! And the anger!
And that was not all! On the return flight, the Captain was Russian. He barely could speak English! I was curious if, following the old Soviet Flight School training, he would land the A320 the same way they did on the Tupolev and the Ilyushin jets? Unfortunately, he did!
Immediate decision: Excalibur NEVER again!
Fact was, it didn't last long! It went bankrupt and was absorbed by another of the UK big, probably also gone by now... LOL! A lesson? Will those fools ever learn?
I NEVER had so bad a treatment, so disrespectful, so unspeakable as I had in England! NEVER!
Absolutely the opposite we all get here in Japan, where the Costumer is King!!!...
