I recently flew on the Emirates A380 in First Class. I was very impressed and decided to upload a video. I will follow up soon with a full trip report but in the mean time, check out the video:
Jetstar are slowly changing the long haul fleet over from the Airbus A330-200 to the Boeing 787-8 and so far they have 4 aircraft in service. I recently took a ride on VH-VKE which was just 2 weeks old at the time. I rode on it between Melbourne and Sydney, which was a domestic tag for a flight that originated in Phuket. As such it departs from the international terminal but they do sell tickets for domestic passengers too. VH-VKE at the gate
---------------------------- Much to the disgust of many frequent flyers, Thai Airways is still using the Airbus A300 on it's domestic and some regional routes. Most people think they are very OLD aircraft, and yes, when compared to say a 777 or A330 they do indeed seem a bit dated. What many people don't realise though is that a large number of Thai's A300-600R fleet are only 12 years old, delivered in 1998. Some of the older models are built in the late 80s though and the business class cabins on any of them leave much to be desired. But for a 1 hour hop on a domestic flight in Thailand they are quite adequate. Although there are not many A300 operators around now a days, there are many Boeing 767 operators and those aircraft are of similar age, look at the Qantas Boeing 767 fleet for example. Myself, I still enjoy flying on the A300, they are large and comfortable and quite suited to Thai's domestic operations. Today I am taking a trip on the A300-600R from Ba...
FLIGHT EY131 AIRLINE Etihad Airways ROUTE Abu Dhabi to Washington Dulles GATE DEPARTURE 10.55AM GATE ARRIVAL 5.25 PM FLIGHT TIME 14 hours 30 min AIRCRAFT Boeing 787-9 (A6-BLA) There has been a lot of hype from Etihad about their new Business Studio seat so earlier in the year I decided I had to try it! I was heading to New York but since the business studios only feature on the A380 and B787-9 Dreamliner, I decided to fly via Washington. Washington is the first long haul destination Etihad served with B787 equipment and is the only USA destination not served with Etihad B777's currently.
