Its a pity that Air <acronym title="Air New Zealand">NZ</acronym>'s economy product has gone down hill so much. They used to have one of the most spacious economy class cabins in the sky, and their onboard catering as others mentioned used to be one of the best. One of my first transpacific flights ...
Jump to postI'm not certain about the monitor, but anytime you sit up front in the nose of a 747 you usually have a bit less privacy because the people in 1ac are closer to you. The nice thing though is that you feel like you are in your own private cabin as you are facing the nose. I'm not sure how Lufthansa d...

Jump to postOk if you use Cimber Sterling ( https://www.cimber.com/booking/) for the Rome to Copenhagen portion, and then use Iceland Express (http://www.icelandexpress.com/booking/price_calendar/). You can maybe get a fare for under 400 USD. Depending on dates and your flexibility.
Jump to postAir Berlin has some cheap flights in October for about 170 US round trip. (ROM-REK) You can't seem to book the flight on their website, but there is certainly a fare there via KVS availability tool. Oops apparently Air Berlin and a lot of other low cost airlines only service it seasonally and stops ...

Jump to postI really think having 34 inch pitch and at least 18 inch width of seats is pretty mandatory for long haul interntional airlines to make them at least comfortable. Getting rid of shared armrests would also go a long way in making the flight more comfortable. I remember when i was a child flying to Ha...

Jump to postI am just wondering what drives airlines to remove their First class product internationally? There seems to be a lot of advantages of a first class cabin: 1) Marketing for the airlines. A lot of airlines showcase their flagship first class cabin in their advertising 2) Airlines with F class cabins ...

Jump to postI don't understand how they can fit 8 across in business on 777s and 747s! Aren't the 777 business seats super crampeda as a result! They must be extremely narrow almost close to economy width. At least the old business class seats were wide and relatively roomy.
Jump to postThis was a post I made on flyertalk in 2002 after I decided after 7 years of flying with them to quit using them completely. I've never gone back and have had exceptional experiences with most other airlines even American ones like Delta and American. I just think there is a bad customer service cul...
