Might be the time for you guys to listen to my advice and start flying AI!

Sorry never a long haul flight for me. Longest I have ever done is SIN-DEL 7 years ago and the Texla TV stuck in the front of business class was enough to put me off for a long while.

AI "regional" international is quite honestly their worst product. Their C class to the US is fantastic.

But to the US you have so many great choices. I know what you mean though, looks quite good. Just haven't got the "courage" to fly them yet :p

Which great choices?
LH still has angled flat. Same with Air France and KLM. So that leaves you with what? LX I guess, but their connections to the US are terrible (11 hours).

Combine the fact that AI is guarenteed to be much cheaper, and you're looking at a much easier decision...

Emirates, Etihad, BA, CO, VS to the East Coast and CX, JL, TG and SQ to the West Coast all offer a better in flight service and Reliable product.
