Air Berlin customer review
J Lehnert (Germany)
Berlin TXL to Vienna. Check In efficient. I had 21 Kilos but I did not have to pay extra fees. B737-700 seat pitch is very tight but this was only a 1 hour flight. Nice selection of magazines and newspapers. There was bretzel free and coffee/tea/ juice at no extra cost. Air Berlin clearly offers an outstanding product on short haul flight. The problem starts with its long haul destinations - the seat pitch is a big problem. I would use Air Berlin on short haul flights but on long distance flights would look for Asian or Pacific carrier if available.

ZRH-TXL-ZRH. Flight was € 199 incl and much cheaper than Swiss. Online Check-in efficient and was at the gate quite quickly. Air Berlin use the B gates at ZRH which are easy to get to but once you are there you cannot do much as there are only 2-3 shops. Boarding is also by bus which is rather inconvenient. TXL is probably the cutest airport I have seen. It is so tiny and efficient for an airport. The distance between the gate and exit is probably not more than 30m. Flight to TXL was delayed due to late arrival of the incoming aircraft and flight back to ZRH was delayed due to ATC regulations. Inflight service is rather simple with free drinks and a choice of crackers or a chocolate bar. Service to TXL was friendly and efficient but the return flight had a very arrogant male FA on board which spoilt the experience. Air Berlin is not a bad airline in general and they can be compared with other carriers in Europe.

ORY-DUS DH8-400. Comfortable leather seats with generous legroom. Cabin interior clean. Web check-in does not work at ORY - however check-in at the airport hassle-free. Free snack on this 1-hour-flight. Hot/soft drinks and choice between bretzel and muesli. Stewardesses polite but not overly friendly. On the downside not a single word from the cockpit!
