British Airways for me. They always were unfailingly polite and ontime. AND - they served me tea on board - real tea Most American airlines will only serve you coffee.

Reach first row :
(To the left)
"Would like some tea or coffee sir?"

(To the right)
"Tea? Coffee?"

Two steps forward :
(To the left)
"Madam?"

(To the right)
"Tea? Coffee?"

Two steps forward :
(To the left)
"Tea? Coffee?"

(To the right)
"Certainly..."

Two steps forward :
(To the left)
"Tea? Coffee?"

...


I would have been a brilliant flight crew member on BA.

Hey! What's wrong with the Dutch cooking??
KLM does suck, btw. And I never had any good meal on a plane, regardless the airline.

BA or Virgin Atlantic - both have been excellent whenever I've flown with them.

Continental were the worst airline I'd ever had the displeasure to pay money to. Never again!

..I've had tea on American ones but only with lemon! ..Emirates had the best on board entertainment...any film any time and any music any time....But I did have some chappy reciting the Koran behind me most of the night!..Not happy with Continental..been bumped! Not happy with KLM..lost luggage!...Loved Thai..got an orhid!!...Jet 2, my fave just for no frills,fantastic cheap flights.

well, i always have to deal with some kind of nervous breakdown when i fly and don't have much consciousness but i guess it's lufthansa. and olympic airways as the stewards told me to go to the pilot's cabin because i'd feel better. and it was a lot better indeed. i stayed there even while landing. that was the very first time i smiled while on board (lucky me i missed the flight with lufthansa and bought the olympic tickets ).

Ponrauil

LOL. You forgot "and for the lad?"

LOL.


I very much vote in favor of BA. Excellent service and very polite. Preferred check in and security check for BA customers (triple stars). CUTE stewards who are embarrassingly flattering (*blushes massively*). Cute stewards. Stewards who are not only good looking but also very attentive and polite. Cute stewards. Witty too. Very patient with the folks unfamiliar with the british accent Great flight attendents



and:



drumroll:




THE ACCENT!!!!!

In conclusion: British Airways RULES!

London Heathrow Ariport, oth, sucks.
As does Kopenhagen and Amsterdam.


Lufthansa used to be good, but really only what an airline should be. SAS is good, but again, what you need on a loooong flight. I did really like Lauda Air - not sure if they are still around.

Any of the American Airlines SUCK massively.

Oh and that Aussie one used to be ****ing shit!
