Food poisoning from meal and poor response times
I caught food poisoning from the turkey and cheese sandwich coming back from Athens to Istanbul yesterday lunchtime and have been up all night with diarrhea. My wine was frozen too, so food handling needs quite some improvement. Also when I got on the plane I had had to sprint across the airport and asked for some water to take a tablet with. This didn't arrive until around 25 minutes later, to which I commented, "if I'd been having a heart attack would you have been 'too busy'". I used Aegean regularly as there is little alternative between Turkey and Greece but it's a poor quality budget airline, as we all know, but health and safety is sadly lacking. More training in food preparation and dealing with medical issues is an absolute requirement.
