“Das Unternehmen hat zunächst unsere Buchung nicht gefunden. Als sie sie dann fanden wollten sie von mir einen Nachweis über die Zahlung haben, denn sie hatten selber scheinbar keine Ahnung… Dem konnte ich aber nur Dank meiner Internet Flatrate nachkommen. Danach ging es irgendwann endlich los. Doch leider gab es nur einen Halt vorm Burj al Arab. Beworben waren mindestens 2 halte. Letztenendes dauerte die Fahrt auch nur 35-40 Minuten. Auch hier anders als die beworbenen 60 Minuten. Vermutlich hätten wir bei dem 30 Minuten packet dieselbe Leistung erhalten. Daher nicht besonders zu empfehlen.”
