  • New business class for Hainan Airlines' Airbus A330s

    Nov 26, 2017, 06:11 PM

    That is a good news.Hainan delivers an outstanding inflight service and is definitely a great company seriously competing with the biggest names in the market. However it is high time they change their hard product on MEL-XIY or even XIY-CDG: to my knowledge they are still running A300-200 on the...

  • Avianca LifeMiles unlocks low-cost business, first class flights

    Jul 06, 2014, 05:45 PM

    I finally managed to do it and got my award paid online! I was confirmed by Life Miles that if the award appears on the website it is always possible to book it and pay it online (no fake or phantom awards) Nevertheless, if you see the award available on the web site and you call lifemiles, the...

    Hi Chris, Thanks for your answer. What do you mean by 'the bank did stop my credit card after the transaction': did you have an error message on the screen saying to contact the call centre?

  • Thai Airways Airbus A350s to Melbourne?

    Aug 13, 2017, 07:55 PM

    That is true that Thai had declined a bit a couple of years ago. However, they must have had a new policy this last year as it has, to my mind, considerably improved their soft product. I am talking about the buisness class between MEL and BKK (777-300, 1-2-1 config) and A380 First between BKK an...

    Yes seats are fully flat bed - If I feel like quibbling a bit I would say that they are slightly lower at the very end of the seat (where the feet are) - however I did not feel like they are huge in length: I am 1m80 and I would not recommend them for people much taller than that.
