Has anyone flown with this airline lately? Are the planes ok or are they basically glorified cargo planes?

The only other alternative is to fly from Dublin with EI & that's just awkward as the flight leaves early in the morning so involves an overnight stay. I love to fly into Cork & be home in 15 mins.

They're called QC's - quick change. When in passenger configuration, they're no different than any other 737. It's not like you're left sitting on cargo pallets

They also have passenger only aircraft

They are actually quite a good carrier. It's a basic service (like a lot of other carriers) but I would have no hesitation flying with them.

They were discussed on boards before... http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056343200
