Interesting you should say that; I caught quite a few of the new ones when I was over last week. I got on one at 5.30-ish on Friday - an extremely hot day. It was chockers and the aircon struggled, but any aircon that could freeze 120-odd people in that temperature would be a modern miracle. A lot of people's grumbles were also about the lack of seats.
The airport is a disgrace. I decided to have a drink in the bar before I returned home. The "Departures" screen in the bar wasn't working. No worries - I'll listen for the announcments. You couldn't hear them - but when I stepped next door into the newsagency, I could hear them loud and clear. And all this while the level of air conditioning made the above-mentioned tram seem like Mr Freeze's personal vehicle.
