Best Inflight Service

[Cool_Flyer]

Hey Yah'll! The best inflight service i had ever had so far was with Sri Lankan Airlines, no surprise because it was voted as the #1 airline with the best inflight service by Skytrax! Their flight attendants were so polite and provided you with the best of hospitality. Not only that, their aircrafts were so clean and smelled quite nice (probably sprayed some kind of scent before a flight). The closest airline with excellent inflight service would probably be Singapore Airlines, but i would say that nothing gets close to Sri Lankan Airlines out of all the major airlines i've travelled with in the world. But anyways, i just wanted to hear your best inflight service!

P.S- My flights with Sri Lankan Airlines were from LHR-CMB, FRA-CMB,
SIN-CMB, and CMB-SIN. Flights with SIA were from SIN-CMB.

[indian airlines]

Cathay Pacific. Excellent inflight service. And I've also heard that Virgin Arlantic and Singapore Airlines have very good Inflight service.

Domestically in India, Jet Airways has international quality inflight service.

[Flying Dutchman]

In my opinion:
Garuda Indonesia, Singapore Airlines and KLM of course!!

[Longreach747]

Japan Airlines for me

[Meridian777]

The best serivce I ever had was on American Airlines Flight 121 from Paris-CDG to New York-JFK on Febuary 26, 2001 on a 767-200. The crew was very professinal and provided great serivce.

so far KLM has impressed me the most!

[ACES A320]

For my opinion the best service I ever had was in Continental Airlines, when I flew to Houston.

And of course ACES offers an excellent service in all the flights I had taken. Definetely one of the best airlines in the world. :D
I love ACES :heart: :love:

Damn it looks like someone is copying my airline. Hey Diego! j/k how is the Olaya doing?

[mirrodie]

So far, no one I know can beat their service.

(And that was from a trip I took PRIOR to its retirement announcement.)

I felt the crew were truly NO HOLDS BARRED in their quest for excellence in service.

[lesenterbang]

Malaysia Airlines. Voted World's Best Cabin Staff for 2003.

I found KLM service excellent, along with Japan Airlines

[Greg J.]

The last time I flew from SFO to Hong Kong, I flew Korean Air and I had the best sevice I ever had! Does anyone know if they are always that good or was I just lucky? That was the only time I flew with them.

[CO66]

I'll vote for CO on my IAH-HNL flight in Business First.

I have only flown on CO's biz class but it was pretty lavish.

[FlyCharlestonSC]

My most comfortable flight was on a US Airways (Chautauqua) ERJ from CHS-LGA or a CLT-CHS flight on an A319 when I was in f/c. US Airways flight attendants always seem nicer than other ones to me, but I have had some problems with their gate agents at CLT!!!!!!!! :x :x :x

[HKG-YUL]

Japan Airlines and Cathay Pacific

[AerolineasArgentinas]

Aerolíneas Argentinas, KLM, Varig and (kick me if you want) Lufthansa.

[a78jumper]

Wardair before they were absorbed into Canadian Airlines was great, even in economy.

[Jbrewster1012]

The best service I ever had was on a KLM flight. The flight was only about 1h 30m but a full breakfast was served. And I was sitting in economy! You would never get this on an American airline.

[uy707]

Most south american airlines were good, special mention for Varig, not always lavish in term of the catering, but always the best meal tray for the best time and distance. In terms of lavish meal tray and presentation Lineas Aereas Paraguayas was on top. Got good memory of Aerolineas Argentinas (EZE-CCS & vv 1988, 707-387B), Ecuatoriana (CCS-BOG-UIO, 707-321Bq HC-BHY) Aeromexico (1993, ORY-Cancun & vv, DC.10-30), Ladeco (1992, EZE-SCL & vv 707-321Bq CC-CYB & N732Q)
Best US airlines, no problems ; Midwest Express and its all first class seats configurated DC.9s litterally jumps off and across the board to win my vote in every respect, back in 1991 it was probably the only airline offering full services, including free drinks (PHL-MKE & vv, AUG91 DC.9-15 return with a 32). TWA in 1978, a JFK-SFO 5hrs25 non stop with 707-331B N8738, Ichan was not yet the owner, the airline was still a full service ; hot meal/free drinks/free headset ofr music and movie/afternoon snack when over the Petrified Forest !!! Sights and sobs
Also in 1978, Western Airlines proved it was the champagn airline even on a LAX-SFO, on board 707-347C N1504W, paid $13 bucks one/way according to the then much publicized Proposition Thirteen Fare ....
About Africa, my best memories undoubdtly lead to Ethiopian, just outstanding whichever the departure time, and Cameroon Airlines during its initial years. Along with the 707, UY came up with a full range of inflights amenities then still unkown by both Air Afrique and UTA, such as movie and individual music on board + assorted catering .....
Europe ; my votes were won by Swissair, Sabena, BCAL, Lufthansa, but also by second-tiers such as Meridiana, Icelandair, Air Malta, Air Portugal, Finnair and Austrian.
Asia ; I not very experienced of the area, I flew just a few, among them I have good memory of China Eastern (CDG-SHA &vv 340-300 + SHA-PEK A300-600 & PEK-SHA MD.11 Feb 2001) and All Nippon Airways(CDG-NRT 1995 742)

[futureCOAIRpilot]

Continental:

I flew them from IAH to JAX on a 1hr 45 minute flight. We got a full cold meal! I flew america west in coach from PHX to CMH (4hrs) We got trail mix. See the difference!?!??!!?!?!? On the trip home America West upraged me to first and I got a full on diner. So I think that co has the best inflight service. Ua has some great service too. I always get hot food on flights over two hours.

[FlyCharlestonSC]

RDU-CLT in 199 or 2000. I don't remember which.
I was flying from LGA-CLT-CHS, my LGA-CLT leg was cancelled, so US Air booked me on a flight to RDU. This flight was late, so I missed my connection in RDU. Then they booked my family and 1 other family, who had also missed the CHS connection on a 767-200. There were 9 passengers, 5 flight attendants, and 2 pilots. I got to sit in F/C. Best flight EVER!!!

[NWAirlinkCRJ@ERI]

The best inflight experience I have had would be:

In the US:
Pinnacle Airlines (Northwest Airlink)
From Erie to Detroit,
-The best cabin staff I have experienced! Not to mention the amount of food I got during a 30 minute flight truly surprised me! It was a 10:20 am flight so I wasn't expecting anything, but I got 3 granola bars, 5 Biscoff Cookies, and a few bags of mixed nuts, plus 2 cans of Apple juice, because I was extra thirsty! And the Canadair Regional Jet is truly a magnificent aircraft. WOW what a bird! Comfy and quiet! Kudos to the airline and crew for giving me the most memorable flight ever!

In India:
Jet Airways
-Great everytime you fly with them!!!!

Internationally:
Lufthansa
-Great cabin staff, and good food too! Seats are great as well!

-Pete

[a78jumper]

After my flight LHR-DXB 28 October I would have to add Emirates to this list. Top notch, aside from a PTV glitch.

[Virgin Blue]

Best inflight service for me is Virgin Blue which is why I am such a big fan of this airline today. I used to fly Qantas alot but found some of the flight attendants a little snobbish (definately not all of them) so one trip I gave Virgin a try and loved the service they gave. The flight attendants are on the same level as the passengers,friendly and very laid back.

[fly1346]

MY best was saudi airlines in AUGUST FROM JFK_JEDDAH amazin service!!!!

[DAL767-400ER]

Best I remember:
DL BRU-ATL, MD-11; BusinessElite was very empty, almost had an f.a. to myself. Got the invitation orange juice (back then I was too young for the champagne :wink: ), hot nuts, food was excellent (noodles with seafood- :drool: )salad, ice cream, cheese, brownie and drinks were offered almost every 30 minutes. IFE and the seat electronics also worked well. I even managed to talk to the captains when they had their seperate breaks.

[Pilatus]

The best inflight Economy class service I enjoyed with Edelweiss Air (Charter flight !!).

The best inflight Business class/First class service I had with American Airlines and Swissair. Althought I have to say I haven't flown Business Class or First class on many airlines (only AA, SR, UL, UA, QF, TP, LX, BW), so AA and SR have the best service out of a small selection only.

[SR 103]

My list is as follows

1. Cathay Pacific (Without a doubt! Yes I have flown the other Asian airlines as well.)
2. Swissair :( (Have not tried Swiss yet)
3. KLM (Staff remind me of good old Swissair. They really make the flight more enjoyable)
4. Emirates (All round class act)
5. British Airways (Yes I still think they are light years ahead of VS!)

SR 103

[Virgin Blue]

Sorry for double post.

[flyingnate88]

Mine would have to be on DELTA, a flight from Salt Lake City to Cincinnatti, got a full meal and the f/a were the nicest people that you will ever meet.

[eddie_AB6]

1. Malaysia Airlines (voted best cabin staff for 4 consecutive years)
2. Singapore Airlines
3. Thai Airways International

[janni-chan]

I'd have to say Thai :D
Then again, I've only been on Thai and Danish Maersk Air... :roll: I'm going on SIA from CPH via SIN to Melbourne (YMML) in 2 weeks though, maybe I've changed my mind then :lol:
~*~Janni~*~

[Japan AirLines747]

Japan Airlines, All Nippon Airways & Cathay Pacific

[G-TDTW]

1. First Choice Airways/Air 2000
2. Air Atlanta Europe
3. Skyservice

At the bottom of the list

[MAS]

Mine has surely got to be MAS @ Malaysia Airlines


Excellent Food :clap:
Excellent IFE :clap:
Excellent Cabin Staff Service :clap:
Excellent Seat Pitch 34 inches :clap:
Excellent Flights :clap:

[eddie_AB6]

[quote]Excellent Food :clap:
Still need to improve, they are going to increase the portions in all classes by November (both regional & long-haul flight).

Excellent IFE :clap:
Not as good as SIA but muchhhhhhh better than TG (do not have even a single PTV in Y), will be AVOD on 744 & 772 real soon.

Excellent Cabin Staff Service :clap:
Totally agree with you

Excellent Seat Pitch 34 inches :clap:
Yeah, all of their widebodied aircrafts (A330-300, B747-400 & B777-200ER) have 34" of pitch in Economy Class except their A330-200 (32" only), may be they should replace it (A330-200) with the B7E7-8 ??

By the way, my lovely flag carrier - Garuda Indonesia has 34" of pitch in Y too in all of their widebodied aircrafts (A330-300, B747-200B, B747-400, DC-10-30).

Excellent Flights :clap:
Yeah :D :D .

Keep up the good work, MAS.

By the way, MAS used to be a 5-star carrier but it was de-graded to a 4-star carrier because of their outdated Premium products. Do you think if they will become a 5-star carrier AGAIN after they have unveiled their new Premium products, inflight amenities & larger food portion in this November ?

[MAS]

Absolutely Eddie !!! I know MAS has soem setbacks if compared to SIA and EMIRATES but surely enough, they will bounce back and reach the top level soon when they are all clear for take off for a revamp. Let me also remind the JP forum that SIA does not really have excellent IFE if you know what I mean. I have travelled SIA before and I did mention that the IFE was out of order for at least 3 of the 8 flights i flew with them.
All the staff could tell me was "Dont know". So what is the hype all about SIA ? And yes MAS will soon change it to AVOD and it will be better I hope. Otherwise, a Technology illiterate like me does not have any probs with MAS IFE. :clap:

Eddie : what airlines do you usually fly ? :D

[J-Bird_MD11]

Eddie : what airlines do you usually fly ?

Garuda, Jatayu (gotta love their 727s), Boraq, Lion, Merpati? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think MAS should install PTVs on their A333s, the can take the existing systems from the B772 and B747 and put them on their A333s and B734s :)

For me, I don't particularly like JAL, their IFE is a bit lacking, prefer ANA though, but hey, I like their J-Bird's MD-11s though.

SIA, MAS, Cathay, Dragonair, ANA, Thai and British Airways are my favourites.

[British Caledonian]

Surprise, surprise....flew BA and Qantas to Japan, Australia, New Zealand and back via Hong Kong (ok, it was in Business Class) and found them to be really very, very good. Also the service on ground was fantastic. Only disadvantage...all flights (except on the LHR-TYO flight, we had a nice japanese lady) had either male flight attendants or rather unattractive females :nonono:

I think in that case it is better to use Cathay, SIA or ANA. Their attendants could participate in Miss Universum contest sometimes. :love:

By the way, J-Bird_MD11,
I've never flown with Jatayu, Bouraq, Merpati Nusantara, Adam Air (something like this, i've seen it several times in Medan > Medan Perang :lol: :lol: ) etc. because i'm still young and i don't want to die so soon :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .

[British Caledonian]

Well...then definetely...from all the airlines I have flown on yet (must be quite a lot meanwhile):

Miss Stewardess award goes to: :love:

2. SIA
3. ANA
4. Malév
5. MAS

worst.... :shakehea:

1. Swiss
2. Lufthansa
3. Qantas

But fortunately in most cases it varies from flight to flight...had one great BA crew on one of last DC10 flights from MIA-LGW back in 97. They were fantastic and made this flight one of the most enjoyable ones I ever had.

[DAL767-400ER]

From experience on longhaul:
DL 777 BusinessElite: very friendly and polite FAs, good food, good seats and good enterntainment, all via an upgrade on Skymiles :D .
On shorthaul:
Sabena: Friendly crew, nice seats, and hot breakfast :nod: .

Cool_Flyer, you never cease to amuse me :lol:

[timman19]

Probably the best service I ever had was on the original Pan Am between London Heathrow and JFK and this was probably because I flew first-class. They served lobster tail for dinner and it was surprisingly very good. The service was excellent and the flight attendants very friendly and their service outstanding. If you hit your flight attendant button they were there very quickly.

The interesting part is that I was on flight 103. I was scheduled to take an earlier flight that day but they bumped me probably because I had a ticket paid at discount by the Army. The customer service rep from Pan Am felt bad for me so he upgrade me to first class.

The date was December 19, 1988. We all know what happened two days later. I actually considered that flight since it left in the evening and was a bit easier to make but then changed my mind as I wanted to get home to do my Christmas shopping. I was home when I heard the sad news and nearly passed out as I had almost booked that flight.

[HS-TGY]

The in-flight service offered by Thai Airways is unbeatable.

My four trips with the airline have all been night flights; departing London Heathrow at 9.30pm and departing Bangkok at about 1.00am each time. Since most of the passengers sleep for several hours, the crew seem to patrol the cabin, offering food and drink to anyone who happens to be awake. Of course, everyone gets their main meal, but passengers can quite easily get hold of a snack or a soft drink at any time in the flight. The Cabin Crew are all very friendly and most are fluent in English.

For domestic trips, I'm a fan of bmi British Midland. My four trips with this airline have been between London Heathrow and Glasgow, a trip that takes about an hour. For my £55 (less than $100) each time, I'm treated to a snack, sometimes something hot and a drink - with alcohol available on afternoon and evening services. The crew are a nice bunch and do their best to ensure that you are comfortable for the very short trip!
