Default Best airline you've flown with??

So far, I have to say Emirates. Anyone else tried them? Where did you go to and from? I can say that they are good by the fact that I was happily entertained or sleeping for the 20 or so hours that I spent actually flying back from Germany yesterday.

So yeah, what do you think?

What do I think? I think that it sucks that you now half way around the earth, and that we need to meet up again soon for more beers

Other than that, I really enjoyed flying with Continental Airlines. Pretty nice flight and friendly staff

Well, at least the people here understand real football, LOL. That said, it's the off-season until March. Doh.

Definitely NOT Iberia.

I have only flown around Europe and the best probably was British Airways.

Iberia is terrible!

The best so far is KLM, followed closely by British Airways.

I also like Lufthansa, but they're so expensive, so I rarely get to fly with them. Air Berlin is surprisingly good for a no-frills airline (you even get sandwiches on board). Ryan Air is pretty good too, considering the cheap prices for their flights. (I only had one bad experience with them).

Besides Iberia, there isn't really one airline in Europe that I dislike...

KLM? I used to fly all over Europe with them and they were crap, losing my luggage 2 flights out of 3 (and this is not an exageration)... Schipol airport is a mess... And their meals are terrible (well, they are a Dutch company ).

Air France is ok, except for their disrespectful crews and delays...

Lufthansa is pretty goood, so is BA. Tops are Emirates and Thai.

Do Iberia have anything to do with Air Scandic? If so, yeah, they're shite.

Southwest Airlines. Pretty casual and friendly staff.
