Which airline to fly
-
I'll be going from Sydney to Amsterdam for work in a few weeks and need to pick an airline. I'll go business class and my choices are the asian airlines (Cathay Pacific, Malaysian, Singapore etc), Qantas, KLM, British Airlines etc. Anyone have a recomendation or experiance with any of these to share?

I have used Cathay Pacific and KLM. Both are very good, but I will choose KLM, and since you are going to Amsterdam, it seems that is the obvious choice :) Best regards, Paul.

Singapore airlines, unless you can fly Emirites. All South East Asian airlines are good, though (well, except I keep hearing things about bits falling off Malaysian airlines. Maybe I misheard...)

I generally find that Cathay Pacific have the better looking flight attendants :-D Hope that helps.

Singapore Airlines, We travel a lot in the area (live in SG, home in Oz) and have found them the best. Sometimes they are a little pricey (not your problem I know) and therefore we have tried other airlines and always come back the Singapore and will happily pay a small premium.

I'd strongly recommend Singapore Airlines - the best I've traveled in, and way ahead of other airlines. Alcohol is free (including JW Black Label), good food, clean and fresh-smelling seats, polite and pretty stewardesses. Couldn't ask for more.

Josh, Singapore Airlines will blow you away! BA's business class is also very good. If I had the choice, I'd fly SA. /ravi

Both Cathay and Qantas had good service, Cathay even had eatable food. :-). I wouldn't go British Airways although I only flew with them on short flights...

I've visited Amsterdam a few times and lived there for almost a year so it's not as exciting this time. Ill spend a week working and stay for the weekend to see some friends before flying home

Just make sure you empty your pockets and clean your clothes well before re-entering Australia, lest you make some unwanted canine friends at the airport!!

I highly recommend Singapore Airlines as well. I've flown with them 9 times. Great service, great looking service :-D , well organized, flights are almost always on-time, good food, free alcohol, and lots of entertainment options. Seriously, Economy class feels like Business class.

haha happened once before, felt like I was on an episode of Border Security!
When I flew into NZ a number of years back, I was waiting in line to be processed and knelt down to open my bag that I was carrying (carry-on sized backpack type bag), and when I unzipped it, a sniffer dog appeared from nowhere and shoved its head fully into my bag... I've pulled the back pack off the dogs head and gone "get out of there!!", then smiled at the officer (what else could I do?). Anyway, so the dog walks up and back, up and back, up and back within about 2/3 people either side of me, then next thing, half a dozen officers turn up and take away the bloke standing in front of me and his two friends!! Guess the dog could smell *something* close by, and wanted to check my bag since I was kind enough to open it at snout level - personally I thought he was after my biscuits!! ------- Edit: fixed typo.
