They flew to Ireland and Aeroflot was cheapest.
Their seats were in the No Smoking section. Make that, their seats were the No Smoking section. =(
To hear them tell it, it was quite an unpleasant - there was something under the floor that was very hot (something's wrong with the plane!), the Russian businessmen passengers were drinking and smoking and singing or talking very loud the entire flight, and the only thing passed out by the crew to drink was liquor (they didn't have soft drinks!).
The flight back was worse as the flight was delayed by the crew trying to round up the drunken passengers from the airport bar...
So remember, it can always be worse. ;-)
Cheers,
Scott.
