Kuala Lumpur
Actually it will also depend on your duration of your journey, I highly prefer Sri Lankan airlines because that's about the cheapest direct flight I can get from Kuala Lumpur, and Aircrafts are clean, economy class is quite comfy. lot of leg room, has on board entertainment, food is OK, staff is friendly... and its my national carrier!

My journey is only about 3 hours+ so I'm not extremely fuzzy about things.. but people travel for more than 6 hours+ have a right to be fuzzy...

I've flown Thai airways as well.. but it was totally disappointing.. it was no where near Sri Lankan.. Aircraft was kinda dirty, NO on board entertainment!! (Crew girls were cute though ;) ) Anyway... there's also this factor that most Airlines does provide the best quality airlines for long distance travel!!

Security wise.... hmmm... I dunno... all the more same..... there's very little you can do about that! Once you're 30000ft. up what can you do!!:lol: :lol:

But statistically speaking air travel is the safest way to travel!

Once i traveled Cathay Pacific Air Line I identified that they provide facility than Srilankan.but Srilankan Air line best for Srilankans because they give us Srilankan foods(some time) and Cathay Pacific (Economy) class little bit compatible than Srilankan(for me)

The ticket price is low in Cathay Pacific Than srilankan Ari line.But unfortunately at present they increase there service charge that directly affect to the ticket price.Therefore travel out of country is little bit expensive:(

  • Well their service and hospitality is so better than most of air liners out there. Even than the British airways. The prices are reasonable. However the biggest disadvantage is still those Sri Lankan flights are not capable of offering on board internet facilities, integration with iPods and Laptops and stuff. And their liquor menu is also very primitive... But as a whole, SriLankan stands against many... :-)

    Ah my route was Colombo to London Hetrew to JFK, New york. 13 hours Sri Lankan flight to Hethrew

    I am in china and use srilankan airlines as the airline.
    Use the economy class and it is good.
    My trip is 9 hours long and nothing to do rather sleeping.
    UL 888 & UL 889 are the planes that travel to china & both of them are in a good condition:yes:

    I have used Srilankan, Etihad, Emirates, Thai, Cathy & Singapore Airlines but for me the best was Emirates. Service wise there are excellent I traveled from Dubai to Colombo that was the best trip I ever had in my life. It was just a 4 hours journey but the in-flight entertainment was mind-blowing.

    1. Emirates
    2. Cathy
    3. Srilankan
    4. Etihad
    5. Singapore
    6. Thai

    Anyway I prefer to fly with Srilankan since it's my national carrier

  • Hmmm, actually accrdng to my expernz i can sort de qulity accrnd to de decending order as follows

    1. Singapore Airlines(SQ)
    2. Emirates(EK)
    3. Sri Lnkanairlines(UL)
    3. GULF airlins)GF)
    4. Indian airlines
    5. Royal Jordanian airlines

    i dont have any idea abt other air lines coz i dnt have any expience on travelling with them... Bt basically emirates and sri lankan r quite equal... n de worst airline dat i used ever was Royal jordanian.. it was jst like a private bus in Sri Lanka..

    in addition to dat de domestic air buses of the indian air lines are nt in de same condition as their international air buses...
