“Flying kangarude”

May 29th, 2007

The MX – (metro eXpress) is a free newspaper available in Melbourne, Sydney and now in Brisbane – that carried a front page story naming Quantas the worst international airline. Jetstar, the local domestic sibling of Quantas also got the thumbs down.

Virgin Blue was mentioned for their good service – something that I do agree with.
Regional Express (Rex), supposedly Australia’s largest regional airline, was named the top domestic carrier – but I’ve never heard of them!

Most of my international flights have been with Quantas and I’d say they’re one of the best. The best flight and service that I’ve experienced has been with a Cathy Pacific flight from Brisbane to Singapore and then onto Johannesburg, South Africa. The service and entertainment was good – I’m damm sure there was more legroom than the normal international flights! Their entertainment center had a serious number of channels – covering news, sport and the latest movies.

By far the worst international flight was a daytime flight to London on South African Airways (SAA). Wherever possible I boycott SAA. But wait there’s more ;-)
