Re: HELP -please! Who to fly with.

I've booked with Qantas. I wanted to go with Cathay as we are stopping over in Hong Kong but when I was checking out the prices they were coming out way more than qantas

must have booked at the wrong time. Are qantas not that good then?

Cathay Pacific come out as really cheap and have 5 stars on a website I found through reading old threads.I cant seem to find any one who has used them.
I was going to book with Singapore Airlines but wanted your opinions.
Thanks people

We have used Qantas,Cathay,Emirates and Singapore 3 times. All were good but we have found Singapore far superior to the others

. If we go back for holidays sometime will definitely use them.
Good Luck with whoever you choose to fly with.

Re: HELP -please! Who to fly with.

We have 3 children and we've flown with BA, Qantas and Singapore Airlines - all were reasonably good and there was plenty to entertain the kids, although Qantas and Singapore Airlines had better entertainment systems than BA (Singapore Airlines best of all 3). Also, Singapore Airlines was the best value with the added bonus that their economy class felt the least like economy of all 3. I've also had the pleasure of being in with the suits on Singapore Airlines on a round trip back to the UK - it was by far the cheapest business class fare I could get at short notice.
