I can't think of any carrier that really shines in Y. TG and SQ are better than many, but it's still coach (humane cattle class, perhaps?)

With most flights under 60 minutes in the air, including climb and descent, I usually get 3 drink refills plus a sandwich in Y (which does not cause renal failure after 3 hours like most airplane food).
TATL I can't say as I always have Delta operated flights.

Um.. Ever noticed the ST roster? Aeroflot.. Chinese carrier 1.. Kenya... Chinese carrier 2.. Korean.. Chinese 3.. Emirates or Qatar doesn't seem like a logical fit.
If not a western carrier, the prerequisite criterion seems to be: communist (or former) or dismal safety records.

Good to hear, I was thinking about that.
dl.dumb is report KL flights using an MD-11 which sounded depressing. seatguru tho says that their Y cabin is actually slightly better than many modern aircract. Can anyone comment on this?

Just noticed you can credit Emirates skywards points to KE, anyone have ideas for shenas to get those into sky-pesos?
EDIT:
and now I'm just spamming, but I thought a few folks might be interested in the promoted adult beverages on emirates

KE doesn't know the meaning of customer service and has probably just lost a lot of business, especially for people involved or following this thread. After this debacle, I will never fly KE.
