The trip was excellent, but the delay was annoying, especially since we were standing waiting for the boarding, which was at 6:25 and did not take place until 7:50.
Ayman M.May 29, 2024
Although it is stated in the instructions when purchasing the ticket that the weight of the luggage must be ensured in accordance with the permissible weight, passengers must be directed well before the flight to the scale to weigh the luggage, given that the weight may increase. By a pound or two, that's what happened to me. I did not find enough time to adjust the weight by transferring some items between the bags, so I lost the flight even though I was at the station a full hour before the flight took off. I consider this a bad experience and I suggest that an announcement be made from time to time about the need to weigh luggage before the trip, and that the location of the scale be made known, especially since there are tourists who come to these stations for the first time.

I liked the services, the people we’re nice, polite and the seats was really comfortable !
