Best service I ever had was on Asiana, a Korean airline... Shaving kits, variety of cologne, tooth brushes, tooth paste, real china, real silver ware, nicely prepared, hot meal of Korean food and the highest quality attitude in flight attendants i've ever experienced... ALL in COACH...
I've flown, Delta, American, US Air, Northwest, Alaska, Eastern, Asiana, KLM, Ryan Air, Easy Jet, AirTran, ASA, American Eagle, and Aerolineas Argentineas....
Worse service was always US Air...
Eastern was pretty good back in the day... Delta use to be, when they weren't broke... |

SAS has been good and bad to me. Good: Chicago -> Stockholm on a plane about 1/3 full and very hot flight attendants. Bad: Copenhagen -> Chicago 5 hour delay causing me to miss my last possible connection for the day.
Air New Zealand was pleasant. Los Angeles -> Auckland (18 hours or something rediculous)
But nobody beats Air Emirates. It's like flying in a limo, almost. |

i find that people often attribute delays to the airline when it usually has more to do with the airport.
i try to avoid connections in certain airports. like i won't fly delta because connections thru atlanta are really unpredictable.
i prefer to fly american because their staff tends to be polite but since they have no direct flights from SFO to EWR i don't have a lot miles with them anymore.
usually i fly continental because they have the most direct flights to EWR. i really find their staff to be snobby but in the end the only important thing is getting a flight that meets my schedule. usually all the direct flights are pretty close to the same price for the places that i fly.
in general i've found a lot of european airlines (on international flights) a lot nicer than american airlines. specifically, air france, swiss air and virgin atlantic. i flew lufthansa but it wasn't anything special. the only exception was i flew iberian air once and it was a nightmare. |

Ive never had a bad flight...
Than again, most of the time Ive flown first class or business... unless Im in a smaller plane, than I really dont care - but I usually get hooked up with seats near the front of the plane. :gsmile: |

Dude, the plane we were on out of Dhaka didn't even have business class. I swear to god it was falling apart. The first plane we were in, we had to wait on the runway for 2 hours while the sorted out a "problem". We ended up switching planes. airline with the worst track record for crashes. I believe thats a guiness record as well. |
