"Always glossy, sometimes stupid, they await you in every seat-back pocket. But which in-flight mags are worth the read?"

I can't have seen more than five of the winners, considering the airlines on the list that I've actually flown.

Still, I can't help but think UA's Hemispheres (http://www.hemispheresmagazine.com/) would stack up pretty well, at least in comparison to some other (non-winning) in-flight magazines I've flipped through over the years.

so that's why AC flights are so expensive ... glossy mag !!

Makes me want to take a second look at the AC magazines. Didn't know they would be up there in terms of "quality" though, its quite enlightening

I have to hand it to AC... they do a standup job with the inflight magazine. It's pretty stylish and interesting to read.
