I am planning to book a flight from Stockholm to Palma de Mallorca.
The 2 options I have is Spanair A320 or Nordic Leisure MD83.
Which is the safest model Airbus 320 or MD 83?
Does anyone know anything about air safety regarding Sapnair?
Has anyone heard of Nordic Leisure (An airline that Air Tours in Sweden uses) and their air safety?

erm..... tricky question but they are both nearly the same and it doesnt matter what you go on but i would rather go on the spanair 320 because i have never been on the md-83 so i dont know what it is like sorry:(
both have good safety records ..they would not be flying if not, and pilots certainly would not risk their own life's if there was anything dodgy about them from memory the MD is a smaller aircraft
MD 83 has 2no engines on the back of the fuselage and are very noisy used alot by Alitalia short haul. I used them entensively Austrian Airlines Tunisia to Vienna when I worked in Libya.
As Wizard says, safety wise, you'll be fine with both. In terms of passenger comfort, I'd go with the A320. The MD83 is a super aircraft performance wise, but the A320 has the edge when it comes to the cabin environment.
Mmmm. Dare i disagree. I have flown Spanair around 8 times including their Airbus 320's and Md 83's. Airbus is a fine aeroplane but noisy when taxying and when the flaps are in operationa dn when the gear goes up and down..especially when sitting in the middle of the aeroplane. Th MD 80's series are older but are great.....really long and you have a greeat sensation of speed and climb when sitting towards the rear of the aircraft. Did not consider them noisy at all.
