Flying sucks in general!

Define what you are looking for in a flight -- that makes a big difference.

If you're flying US domestic and you don't want to fuck around, Southworst is the way to go, it's like the Greyhound of the skies. Personally I don't care for them, but that's just me.

Transatlantic service, if you can get on a flight on Air Tahiti Nui, they rock, in all classes.

American has really let the quality of their interiors slide lately, even in first, imo. United has been making a major push to upgrade their interiors to the point that they have the most room, seat pitch, etc in any class of service for a US carrier flying internationally.

Air New Zealand is a GREAT airline. Nice people, clean planes, you can move your legs in economy, free drinks, food, etc.

Air Lingus, Ryan, EasyJet -- those are like Southwest in the states - you get where you are going, that's for sure.

I've flown some insanely crappy airlines in the Caribbean, and a lot of the airports there are so manana mentalitied that it's nuts.

Balair/SwissAir in it's original deal used to be my favorite.

Don't care for KLM at all.

I used to work at a travel agent and I heard WAY too much about Aeroflot to ever fly them. My favourite story about them is when they had to ask the passengers to chip in money to refuel the plane. Um, no.

i also gotta throw in airfrance as one of the worst airlines.. i flew business from paris to dubai and that was a shitty flight.... the food was crappy and it was like economy.. i couldnt even get something to drink enough times.. took me like 30min-1hr each time to get a drink..

while on virgin atlantic i could walk to the upper class bar and grab a drink :D

Ive flown virgin,air france, united, delta, swiss, klm, southwest, jetblue, air tran, continental, copa, british airways, and a few more im forgetting..

and out of all of them, i rank virgin #1.. i grab virgin whenever i can..

Indeed Virgin atlantic are a fabulous crew as is BA. Personally I love flying with monarchs, usual flights from Luton to Spain.

I notice a few have mentioned a few singapore airlines, and they are all meant to be fantastic, although never flown them.

My worst was iberia, however, not for the crew but because of a heavy storm, dropping 10thousand feet in a few minutes is pretty dramatic!

Best: Virgin.
Worst: Everyone else.

See the correlation between Airlines with Unions being shitty and Airlines without being the best?

Lots of Asian airlines you can't get hired and have to move on when you hit 30.

again with air canada - i flew executive class literally 4 days ago to mexico. took almost an hour to get a drink. they lost their corkscrew (why would they only have one corkscrew anyway?). so dude pulls out a knife, and is trying to get the cork out of a bottle of wine. real whimpy guy, so i asked him if he wanted me to give it a go. he was like, well, i can't let you have a knife. so he farts around with the bottle for another 15 minutes, and finally just hands it to me. had it open in a minute. air canada. what can you say lol.

oh, also, Aerolineas Argentinas sucks balls too. lost all our snowboard luggage and gear, waited around on the tarmac for 30 minutes, crappy plane, crappy food, crappy everything. actually i suppose that is least favorite airline.
