What's currently the best airline in your opinion?
 

I have flown the following airlines in the past year or so:

American Airlines
US Airways
Southwest
Continental
Delta
Air Canada
Westjet

Of all these, I have to say Air Canada was the best. Newest aircraft with nice direct flights from Montreal to LA, and very cool "on demand" movies and shows on the back of every seat on the airplane. Westjet is a very close second.

WestJet has the hotter stewardesses. If your really nice, they sometimes will let you sneak a peek at their garters :)

I flew WestJet for the first time last month and they are right up there with Jet Blue imo.

My vote is for Southwest...But my opinion is a bit biased.

and what about KLM, Lufthansa and such??

Otherwise, yes, my vote goes for Air Canada too

in order:
West Jet
Southwest
AirTran
Continental

Jetblue fell off my list because of the massive delays I experience every time I fly them.

I usually fly only northwest because detroit is there main hub but I recently few on frontier and I like them a lot tv in every seat and they have the best headrests

British Airways for trans Atlantic.

Northwest/KLM

international flights Singapore Airlines kicks ass....Emirates Is also nice.

i think your method a poor way to judge an airline, some fly nicer planes on more popular routes, so to base it on the age of the plane and value of the entertainment on board is pretty weak.

For instance KLM/NWA Amsterdam to Seattle has nicer entertainment on it then Amsterdam to Los Angeles. Both have free liquor though, so doesn't bother me.

Emirates is very nice as is Singapore, as an all around airline. Iv heard nice things about one of the Thai airlines also but have no first hand experience.

dont really like Air Canada, try and use anything else instead:winkwink:

I just gave Montreal to LA as an example. I have no idea how popular a route it is.
How else do you want me to judge them? I had much better experiences on the ones I mentioned.

I didn't expect all the hands up for WestJet. Interesting.

that depends where are you flying, air canada service is good but they will charge you even for the air you breath, Recently I flight with spirit airlines, it was cheap but the service was terrible

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

1. Taca - new planes hot Costa Rican stewardess

2. lufthansa - great service

I hate flying.
They all seem like germ pits to me

Singapore airlines is hands down the bes, imo.

ATA ?????? :upsidedow

Singapore airlines.

Air Berlin - but you have to come over to Europe to fly with them.

Virgin =)
Because they're doing massage on board =)

Lufthansa is the best airline I have ever flown on. Great food, open bar, and the best stewardesses.

About the worst. At least they attempt to distract you from how uncomfortable you are by giving you non-stop food and drink.

They are.

The only thing worse than Northwest/KLM

I have to pick SWA by default because I am flying them constantly.

british airways and lufthansa i think

I like Frontier and Southwest

#1 Virgin
#2 British Airlines
#3 Thai Airline

ATA all the way!

SWA is my choice. I almost always fly with them although their baggage claim at SFO fucking sucks!

United for within US travel ......

Iraq Air for internattional

Westjet by far

ryanair

so dam cheap and when they have their offer days i go crazy.

i am flying to denmark and norway for 4p, not taxes no nothing, the flights have been paid for, done and dusted.

beat those prices.

even without offers prices are under £70 usually.

uncorftable planes and shit customer service, but at that price who cares?

today: chapter 11, closed down ....

British Airways :)

Really? That should be interesting since they did the NYC route for SWA. Wonder how I will get there now.

unless they emerge from it, not with their wings ...:

I like Lufthansa for all those reasons, but I haven't had a recent experience with them. Last time I flew Lufthansa was in 1990.
