Korean Air Business
KE672 777-200 KUL to ICN I got a bargain price on this flight from Kuala Lumpur to Incheon/Seoul so I grabbed it and as I had not flown with Korean Air before I was looking forward to the experience. So as I was a transfer passenger arriving at KUL I was disappointed that I was not able to get a ...

Air Asia X Business (short haul)
on: A330
I had booked a $99 intro fare plus $50 of extras from SYD to KUL and had also requested an OptionTown upgrade which is based on seat availability for a fee $115. So when I got the confirmation of the upgrade the day before flying I felt it was a great deal for the 8hr SYD to KUL trip for a total of ...

Asiana Airlines Business
My flight was a 3 hour morning flight from Incheon to Hong Kong due to leave at 9:20am but when I arrived at the airport I found it had been moved forward 20 mins to 9am which wasn't a problem. As Incheon is Asiana's home turf they have a large dedicated section for check-in's and this was a ...

I booked this flight from Sydney to Cairns for a long weekend in the sun as a birthday surprise for my partner. The day was starting well as I checked-in online at home and was lucky to get exit row seats on the 3 hour flight to the tropics. Then it was off to the Kingsford Smith Airport for our ...

on: A330-300
After a wonderful visit to the newly opened Turkish Airlines business lounge at IST with numerous food choices I was already well fed and watered before waiting in the crowded gate for the 11:30pm departure on the new Turkish A330. Having seen advertising for the new Turkish business class seating ...

BKK to LHR. Leaving BKK at around midnight after a visit to the shared BA/QF lounge meant that most business passengers were ready for a quiet flight and some sleep on this 12hr flight to London. I was seated upstairs in 18K, one of the favoured window seats with the handy side lockers. These ...

After a wonderful visit to the newly opened Turkish Airlines business lounge at IST I was already well fed and watered before waiting in the crowded gate at 11:30pm and then boarding the new Turkish A330. This aircraft was fitted with the latest flat-bed seating which was a highlight for an 11hr ...

Syd to BKK. Seat 17A Upper deck window. Great seat with side lockers under the windows which makes accessing your hand luggage during the flight very easy. Seat comfortable even though it is an angled flat version on this 9hr flight. The cabin is in excellent condition for this 19yo aircraft. ...

TXL to IST Berlin's Tegel airport is from around the 1960's and it is showing it's age, but the efficient Berliners have kept it clean and in working order. Due to the lack of space in this compact terminal once you enter through passport control you are forced to wait in a small waiting area at ...

Bangkok Airways Economy (short haul)

BKK to HKT 28/10/10 We chose Bangkok Airways over Thai Airways due to the huge price differential, and I'm glad we did. Easy to book, easy to check in at BKK, and best of all they have their own lounge for economy passengers. I'd read online about the BKK lounge and it didn't disappoint. The ...

BA10 SYD to BKK We checked-in online and managed to get seats at the front (bulkhead) of the rear economy section giving us a little more space for the 9hr+ flight. Crew were efficient in their duties but not overly forthcoming in the smile department. As always BA is generous with their drinks ...

After much bagging of Qantas by the Australian media recently, it was refreshing to have 2 perfect flights on Qantas: Sydney-Adelaide-Sydney. Both on 737-800. Leaving Sydney on Friday night on time at 18:05. The flight was almost full. Only 2 spare seats and one was next to me. Qantas Citiflyer ...

Prague to Charleroi (Brussels) Boarding done by buses was slow. Glad we paid the extra 5 Euros for exit row seats. Great legroom. Friendly smiling crew and spotless plane. Would definitely fly with them again.

QF 128. HKG - SYD Seat 2A The First cabin much more spacious than BA but downside of this is the lack of privacy as the seats are aligned to the fuselage and not pointed in such as BA. Cabin crew were excellent, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. They also ensured that the pyjamas ...

BA31 LHR to HKG. Seat 3K After poor service in the Concorde lounge at T5 it was a pleasant suprise to have attentive FA's onboard. As I was last to arrive in the First cabin I was flooded with Champagne (Pol Roger 1999), macadamia nuts, pyjamas and menus before I had even sorted my bag and sat ...
