Top 10 International Economy Airlines

• Flying internationally can be a literal pain and it
is something that I have to do quite often; so I
have decided to make a list of the top 10 airlines
to fly if you are flying economy. This list does not
apply to US domestic air travel. The selections for
this list are based upon seat quality, quality of
extras (for example, personal TV), and service
quality (staff and food). The heaviest bias in
deciding positions is towards comfort, with
service as a secondary. The data used in this chart
is from Seat Guru. I have used only the top rating
jets of each airline

1. Emirates

• Big seats, great service, and personal TVs for
all. With Emirates you get AC power at the
seats and access to StarOffice software and
USB. Emirates also has a mini bar at the rear
of economy which is available with snacks and
drinks for the duration of the flight. You can
also email and SMS from your seat. This airline
deserves its rank as number 1.

2. Air New Zealand

• The only thing stopping Air New Zealand from
being number one on this list is the fact that
not all of their jets have personal televisions;
aside from that, the service is top, and the
food is excellent

3. Singapore Airlines

• This airline has always been at the front of
new developments in air travel. While
providing the most common features of the
other airlines here, they now provide live
television and access to Open Office software
with USB access.

4. Cathay Pacific

• Cathay Pacific have big seats, very friendly
staff, personal TVs for all, and power at all
seats. Cathay is now using a special type of
reclining chair based on an office chair
design, that allows you to recline without
intruding on the passengers behind you –
which means you will not be intruded on
either.

5. Air France

• This is another surprise airline. Almost every
review I found on this airline was very good or
excellent – the exceptions were generally
relating to delays which are not always under
the control of the airline itself. The seat sizes
here also rank in the top, and the food (being
French) is excellent and on long haul flights a
buffet is available at all hours

6. Virgin Atlantic

• My experience of Virgin Atlantic was extremely
good. The British staff were much more pleasant
and friendly than the BA staff and you could tell
that they have a real eye for detail in the interior
and extras. Unfortunately there were some major
breakdowns of the televisions when I was on my
last Virgin flight and nothing was able to be done
for the duration. The seats could definitely be
bigger, but all in all the service on Virgin is great.
Free alcohol all the way.

7. Qantas Airways
• Aside from the unfortunate seats, Qantas has
a good reputation and very friendly service.
The food is good and everyone has their own
television. Unfortunately there is also no
power at the seats on this airline.

8. Malaysia

• The Malaysia air service is very good, and their
seats are in the top on the list for size. While
they lack electricity at the seats, they have
personal televisions for all economy travelers.
Friendly staff also helps their ranking here.

9. British Airways

• Both British Airways and Qantas scored low
for having the smallest seats in the list. My
own experience of both of these airlines, is
that while service is generally good, and food
is very good (on Qantas), the seats are very
uncomfortable. I was also disappointed to
note that BA does not have power at any
seats.

10. American Airlines:-
When I started compiling this list, I was not
expecting American Airlines to do very
well, but I was surprised to find it had
excellent extras, such as standard DC power at
many seats. If they had power at all seats they
would have scored higher. They also have
personal televisions on every jet. The service
was a little low, but it was bearable and their
large seats make up for a drop in quality there.
