Well... Northwest "does" fly back to Australia since Delta took over Northwest. I think Delta does not need government approval but has the Northwest's right.

Last time, I checked the time after landing and then we were waiting for long time at the taxiway because another plane was still at our gate. I found out on the screen that the plane landed "ON TIME" but we were still inside the plane for more than 20 minutes!! Therefore, I think the airl...

Jump to postWow not that a good idea! Without window and sunlight, there will be lots of germ and bacteria that live inside the plane for long time. It will go bad!
Jump to postVirgin Atlantic stopped flying to Australia many years ago. Only British Airways can fly to Australia. Virgin Atlantic had an interline agreement with Swiss/Lufthansa/Austrian between Europe and Australia via Asia.
I would LOVE to see LH/LX/OS aircraft in Australia! lol
Air Canada has three different type of same livery (old).
1) greenish fuselage that match to the tail
2) eurowhite fuselage (except tail)
3) polish silver fuselage (except tail).
Cathay Pacific - change from 744 to 744Combi
All Cathay Pacific 743s have missing doors in the middle of the fuselage (above the wings)
LOL... I was told that it's illegal to put pineapple on the pizza in Italy. If they did, they have to pay fine for that. It is not joking lol.
Jump to postWow... I can't say that I love it and I dislike it. It doesn't look represent Canadian culture. I cannot see and feel like it's canadiana but I can feel like our modern style... Those colors look like you can see everyday and EVERYWHERE!! They match to the car design and white car and traffic light....
Jump to postSorry... can you please give me more detail about it... I guess you are talking about Swissair??

yeah and there was no overhead bins in the aisle/middle of the aircraft. Oxygen masks were placed behind the seats. Yeah...

Jump to postAnother story - Austrian airlines hired some Japanese flight attendant. I met a newbie Japanese crew on my Austrian flight and she was really nice and calm.

Longest: JFK - YVR (AA)
Gibraltar (British colony in spain) comes in my mind. Strong wind (from sea) against the rocky mountain while approach/take off, avoid crossing the border between British and Spain, land runways over highway/pedestrians and lots of houses everywhere.
Jump to postWow that's interesting but I haven't seen that situation in all my life. I have flown on LH many times (last time was in Jan 2016) before and never seen that happened. They were all prepared before push-back. I do remember on my flight - Dragonair - the overhead bin were closed and locked but I was ...

Jump to postZurich terminal is big and it's a long way to get there. When you arrive the international terminal, then take an underground tram/train to take you to the intra-Europe/domestic terminal. If you get lost or could not find the gate, you may miss your flight.
Jump to postAlso Cathay Pacific has a codeshare with Air New Zealand between HKG and South America via Auckland
Jump to postWell... I was on that same flight in January. However, I was in another days but I saw same female flight attendant (show in business class). Didn't know that she was still on the same flight to Dublin many times. lol Different gate... I remember my swiss plane was next to the Turkish airlines 738.
Jump to postNo...only for flying to Spain. Never seen that LH offered beers on board. I flew on it few month ago, there were no beers on my flights because it was early morning.
Jump to postKorean Air should ask Boeing to make a new frame of 747-800D (D means for domestic) like old 744D (JAL and ANA had them long time ago)
Jump to postI think Emirates has done very good job to help disabled people. They can do their best to help them and make them feel comfortable. If they are in trouble, flight attendant can think of "outside the box" and try to figure out how to help them.
