Not really. mostly families, young couples, retiree couples. The Russians don't like to use the local 'girls' either. The Russians prefer their own workers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a 777-300 (Aeroflot 6696, reg: EI-GES). The biggest model. 432 passengers? Well not premium but it's possible to stuff in 550(!) if equipped with one single cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of 400 in a B777=300, although theoretically it could take 450. 500 I very much doubt is possible in a B777, unless they are all standing.

In the last few years I've been paying around $130 for an emergency exit seat on the London - Bangkok flight, I'm quite tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1100+ Jews from Ethiopia stuffed in a 747 didn't complain I guess, escaping civil war. Of course the rules for air-travel were much "relaxed". "Operation Solomon".

The thread is about Russians going home. Some of them probably not enjoing their "extended holiday" but disparate to get back to family/work etc. And for that they will sustain some discomfort on the packed flight.

I did meet a few Russian families who had been stranded here they were not very happy, at the time when you couldn't go to the beach or use the swimming pools also could not leave the area that meant they could only travel in a 6 km radius, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
