What i noticed

NZ:
Seems correct, but NZ has one or two 747 where seats go flat. Still in 2-2 config in the nose of the 747. Otherwise i would agree

AA:
No mentioning of typically very mediocre (or less) service

Asiana:
Very bad IFE, seats not flat (they recline to 180 deg but have noticable bumps). Very dated look, run down feeling of the seats (at least in the planes i have been in)

BA:
No mention of the fairly small seats (14 where other airlines have 12).
No mention of sometimes grumpy, sometimes very nice crews (very inconsistent)

CX:
Seats are wider as on others like BA, QF

Japan:
Only experience with the older seats. Would agree

Korean:
No experience

Qantas:
Seats smaller (14 instead of 12 in the nose like BA). Layout different from BA (4 along the side instead of 5 = less privacy)

SQ:
This is only true for 747, not for F on 777 (old style 2-2-2 sub standard).

TG:
Disagree on food. Substandard compared to other asian airlines.

UA:
No mention of typically horrible service.


At least it is a good start. Why is not somebody on this board starting to collect all the information about the differen airlines and different plane types?
I would be glad to provide more information.
