Comments:
Meal: good taste, not too much.
Flight attendant: the first time i saw on Tarom flights a really cute stewardess, below 35 years. All stewardesses were very friendly, asked me all the time if I want a Drink:.
Groud service: the worst i have ever experienced. For every flight they had one counter open for economy class, and for business class for all flights (about 8 that morning) they had only one. Maybe they wanted us to stay in the queue and not to go to the business lounge. After more than 45 minutes of waiting I was afraid not to get the plane.
Rating 1-10 (worst-best): 9 - no fresh milk for breakfast :((
