Great deal if you know what you're buying
This is an budget airline that offers intercontinental flights. If you know what you are buying, this is an amazing deal. I paid 370 euro roundtrip for Amsterdam to New York. I did have to purchase an additional express bus ticket for 61,49 euro roundtrip to get to the city, but that is still quite cheap. Because Play is a budget airline, everything will cost extra. When you expect this, you will have a good experience. This means you must be certain about your dates of travel (as changing tickets will cost more), you must be okay with getting random seat and you ideally want to not being more than the included small bag. Play calls this your personal item, but I found it to be a pretty decent size (42 x 32 x 25 cm). Keep in mind you must put this bag under the seat in front of you, as this doesn't count as carry-on. The seats themselves are pretty comfortable. I am 1.93m tall and my knees didn't touch the seat in front of me when sitting up straight (about 3 cm of space left). For context, my legs are about 1.09 meters when measured from my hip bone. I saw one other guy who had to fan out his legs to sit comfortably, so your mileage may vary.
