5 Stars

How often do we get influenced by a good advertisement? How often do we get cheated by the same method, and how often do we actually give it a thought before diving into the products being advertised?

One particular airlines that claimed themselves to be 5 stars, had some amazing advertisement ranging from vintage wine, to 1,000 layers of savory skins, and aromatic brewed Arabian coffee in mid air. It was fantastic, so you think. I have traveled on this airline in all the classes, but 5 stars………….. hemm, I don’t think so.

If you have the opportunity to visit their head office, you will not be mistaken if you think you are actually in Indian Airways, because the majority of the people that you will come across in the office are Indians. However, when you are on board, then you will not be mistaken if you think that you were traveling on Philippines Air as almost all the crew on board are from the Philippines.

Depending on the route that you are traveling to or from, the food served on this so called 5 stars airline varies. It can be from the best to the worst, even on the first class cabin. This is also one airline that more than often got the passengers’ booked seat switched at their own wimps and fancies.

What is more amazing is that the toilet at their airport cannot even be considered as 2 stars. The hall leading to the executive lounge was filthy with the stench of cigarettes and smoke, and you will see passengers gulping their food on the bench openly.

5 stars, you tell me.
