    This is Etihad Airways Airbus A340-600 A6-EHJ, if you are lucky, you get to fly on this plane! F1 Formula special livery
    Charles Ryan T.

    One of the TOP airlines in the world, based in Abu Dhabi, Middle East. This airline, along with Qatar Airways and Emirates has given the smaller airlines a headache even the major carriers such as SQ, CX and the American carriers are not enthusiastic about their presence. So when I had to fly to London for personal reasons, I would travel alone to try out which airline I want to fly with and this airline gets my go ahead. Primary reason is to fly the airline's Airbus A340-600 aircraft. At that time, I haven't flown on this aircraft type. It was a decision between this and Qatar Airways. From London Heathrow, I would to fly to Abu Dhabi and changed plane to Singapore from there. On that day, I did my check in and I was notified of an aircraft changed from Airbus A340-600 to A340-500. I was quite pleased with the change because the -500 series is a pretty rare aircraft to fly on. In-flight service was not bad except for a crew whose mind seemed to be somewhere else! A few of us had spoilt PTV system and we notified this crew but she didn't do anything so I approached another crew who immediately change our seats (the others too) - that's what I called service. After that incident, that unhelpful crew didn't appear at my aisle for the rest of the flight. In-flight meals on my flights were pretty good and trying out the IFE system on my other flights with this airline, I wasn't disappointed at all. The airline now offers a very prestigious Apartment and Resident class on the Airbus A380 - probably one of the best in the market and they cost an arm and a leg for it! Whether is it worth splashing those $$ for the classes, it's up to each individual, personally I won't and if I have the miles (frequent flyer program), I probably will give it a try. This airline also operates the modern Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, worth flying on it! So when you book your flights, check the aircraft types, go for the Airbus A380 if possible.

Terminal 5 at Heathrow is for British Airways with a separate check-in for Club. To my surprise, the queue for full service check-in was quite long. There was a dedicated bag drop line along with a document verification line. The priority screening was helpful for Club passengers although the security process was rather chaotic.... Boarding for long haul flights at B gates is a couple tram stops away. There are limited food options once at the B wing. The 777-300ER was in great shape, especially the cushions in Club Suites. There was a sliding door with my suite which was available after takeoff. I was extremely impressed with the catering out of Heathrow, which seemed to be done by Do & Co. Each course was presented and plated separately. The quality of each course was excellent. I was serviced by the in-flight manager whom addressed me by name with every interaction, which was surprising. Between meal services, I found the crew to be lazy as I had to head to the galley to get more water, some snacks, or a drink. Rubbish wasn't collected from my seat either. The dust bins were rather hard to find in the galley. My flight from Heathrow departed on-time and arrived on-time to SFO.

A few days later I received an email stating BA changed my return flight to leave from Baltimore not Washington Dulles. Since I will be unable to travel to another city and state for the flight I asked to be rebooked on a flight leaving Dulles. I was then informed I would need to pay to pick my seats. I told the agent I already had a ticket that included seat selection but was told there was no "free seat selection" on my new flight. I said my seat selection wasn't free but included in the ticket. They said because my flight changed due to "operations" that I would need to pay for seat section. I paid €170 for seat selection. Seven days later I received an email saying something was wrong with my booking and to call. After a 27 minute phone call I had to reenter my credit card information and was told I needed to check back in 7-10 days to see if the card was actually able to be charged. It really doesn't make sense to fly BA again when there are better options out there.

    British Airways - This is what it looked like while deplaning from the A-380 after arriving in the U.S. and it is impressive.

The things I liked: I felt safe, captains were communicative with updates, really polite and friendly flight crew who are all fluent in multiple languages, very clean interior of plane, food was great, screens at every seat with wifi/games/movies/music. Check in/boarding/getting off/baggage claim all organized and went smoothly at Newark but chaotic at Orly. I can't tell if that was attributable to the airline or the airport. The things I disliked were that the cabin was uncomfortably warm for most of the flight, there was no overhead air vent that I could control, and the seats were so close together that my side body, arms and legs were pressed up against the passengers on either side of me. For a budget airline, it really wasn't that much less expensive than other airlines. At first it seemed cheaper because the actual airfare was low, but then we got about $600 added on in carry-on bag fees, checked bag fees, select which seat fees, food, beverages, wifi, and random charges that I didn't even understand what the fees were for. Furthermore, at Orly we had to check in our own baggage and there weren't enough attendants and a bunch of the computers were down. Unsure if I would fly French Bee again.

    Well. I got to Germany ok and I was a United fan…read more My flight back home took a turn. The first leg of a two leg journey home was canceled. I got an email telling me. United had put me on Eurowings, who was useless. Trying to reach someone is obviously not something they want, since it's next to impossible. 4 hours of trying to reach United, on the night of my goodbye party, I was worn out. I had text, app messaging, and phone calls all going, in hopes I'd get help. I was on hold 20 minutes and was disconnected. That happened twice. I got a reply on the app and was told that my flight wasn't canceled. He told me I should check the website, which I did and it showed canceled. As I ended with him, the text feed hit and that representative showed that yes, indeed, the flight was canceled. He offered to book me on the next day, which I declined. I needed to be home when I planned. So, I had to leave 4 hours earlier and has three flights to get home. But, it would get me home. I'm really grateful for that rep. Once I got to lax I learned that my bags didn't make it and were lost. Nobody really cared that much, but everyone was friendly. So, I got home three days ago. I'm still waiting for my luggage. I'm told that it's found. When I look at the website for the delivery, the status says "Out for Delivery Delivering 2 bags yesterday by 6:30 pm." Out for a yesterday delivery? Ok. I'm not really a fan right now. Three stars for the kind flight staff that helped me, since my back was killing me. And the Lufthansa flight staff that moved me to a better seat. And, for the guy that said he would send me a $100 travel voucher, and also offered a sincere apology. The $100 feels like a very small token of consolation. But it's something. I would have done no less than $250, but that's just me. Mostly, I liked that he owned it and apologized for the trouble experience. He nailed it. It was terrible, and I hope I get my luggage soon...

Then found out flight is cancelled. We wait in line to service desk. Talk about what service? The agents at London Heathrow are lazy and kept having us walk back and forth to other service desks and wait in other lines to not be helped. They also wouldn't help us with getting our luggage. They told us to go to baggage claim so we did then baggage claim told us that Eurowings is supposed to find it because it's still in transfers so we have to go to them. Eurowings then said no it's baggage claim's job. But Eurowings would not call them and tell them that. Instead they have us go back and forth when they are the two parties miscommunicating! Talk about LAZY! Too lazy to make a phone call instead of having us walk back and forth to departures and baggage claim. They need proper training for inconveniences like this because it just puts stress on the passenger when the whole situation is the airline's fault.

One hour on customer service hold ended with a disconnection. Another hour and 30 minutes reached a representative that said he'd transfer me to a colleague to sort things out. Over an hour waiting was too much. Went to the online site to cancel and request a refund but found the site is circular and you can never get to a cancellation or refund option. Stuck in the wrong country, I finally managed to withdraw my check-in for the flight I would be able to reach due to the first cancellation. After spending another hour on their (hideously poor) online presence and not being able to request a refund anywhere, I called customer service again. After 40 minutes I reached an operator that looked things up and said he would transfer me to the booking department to sort things. That just put me back into waiting with a message that says every minute "we will connect you to the next available operator", which, of course, is just another person that will transfer you back to the waiting line. So, not only did I not get a flight to my destination, there was no recourse to even obtain a refund for their mess. DO NOT BOOK WITH EUROWINGS!

The best part was that the seating was comfortable with a 17" width (which is average) and a good 31" pitch and in a 3x3x3 configuration. The meal was a good burger dinner with a decent red wine, and I was ok with that. A cheese wrap was also provided before landing. The flight boarding was orderly, we arrived on time with no issues, and our stewardess was smiling and friendly. 4 lavatories located near the center of our section was adequate, and it seems lavatories aren't located in the rear anymore for what that's worth. Entertainment selections were extensive and good. I've had a lot worse long haul flights, so I was pretty happy.

    Turkish airlines is probably one of the worst airlines I've ever experienced…read more Generally, whichever major airline you've booked a flight with, and there are utilizing Turkish airlines, just say no. Unless you are a local or have some magic powers, even the booking airline is unable to select any seats, meals, etc. for you. We literally rushed through Heathrow to get to Turkish Airlines, only to discover the lines to get checked in at the gate , and onto the airplane we're just a hot mess. The people at the counter were extremely rude to everyone, and it just made the experience even worse We ended up not being able to sit together, but they found two Aisle seats for us, and we acquiesced to those seats just so we could board the plane. The four hour flight felt like we were being dragged across the top of numerous mountains because it was bumpy and for the first time in my entire life, I had motion sickness from the horrible flight. The one thing I found interesting about this flight and maybe it's just their common practice because we certainly don't see this in the United States, is that there was meal service. Keep in mind there isn't a choice of what you're being given to eat, but if you're hungry, it's better than nothing I suppose. I'm here to say that the food was horrible. The drink service was even worse, and the flight attendants were absolutely rude. Would I recommend this airline?! Absolutely not at least this leg of our journey was completely under desirable, and this plane was extremely uncomfortable.
