ALK Airlines
The operator of Bulgaria’s other pair of MD-82s is another charter specialist, namely ALK Airlines. Its two ‘Mad Dogs’ are 32.4 years old on average, making them slightly older than the carrier’s other two aircraft (A pair of Boeing 737-300s clocking in at 30.1 years old on average). Interestingly, they have two different layouts.
Specifically, 33.15-year-old LZ-DEO is the denser of the pair, seeing 172 passengers with a knee-crunching standard seat pitch of just 28 inches. Meanwhile, 31.62-year-old LZ-ADV offers a slightly more comfortable experience, with its 160 seats offering 30 inches. Both aircraft joined ALK Airlines in 2016.
