Definitely not the most comfortable, luxurious, or rapid way to travel international... but I must say its fun! (and it doesnt hurt to get paid either)

Regional carriers in China had the cutest flight attendants IMO. But Singapore Air did live up to their stellar rep for international travel:

I have flown with a few airlines and I found Thai to be the friendliest. Next to test out would be Singapore.

Threre's only one for me : British Airways. In flight service has gone down the drain and leg room gets smaller each year but this airline goes the extra mile when it comes to take care of their customers if something goes wrong . Love their ground facilities.

I fly Qantas most times. No it has nothing to do with their air hostess...we all know Qantas air hostess is a hit or miss and its mostly a miss.

You know...really? A couple of the comments in this thread are so out of order I'm beginning to wonder.

Let's be respectful and consider your posts before you hit submit.

In any case consider this a warning....any more of the same and it'll be followed by infractions or worse.
