I used the flight as a business trip. The flight route is very short. The flight went without incident. The plane was very empty and I was able to relax well. The crew was, as it almost always is, very polite and courteous. The plane was clean, neat and tidy. I got a small espresso on board, which was quite good. Since it was a business trip and I was reimbursed, I can recommend it from that point of view. In terms of price, there are certainly cheaper alternatives.
