I have nothing but high praises to high heavens to all the airline pilots of the world for getting me and my fellow travelers to our destination safely and always on time (so far). Without these flying knights there are no world travelers. Thank you all!Airlines that I flew through the years:
1. Air France - My first international airlines.
2. Northwest Orient Airlines - Thanks for not flying with 2 flat tires and 1 blown engine and aborting the take-off in Seattle. Or was it Anchorage?
3. Trans World Airlines (TWA) - The best and smoothest landing I ever had in Las Vegas. It was never duplicated.
4. American Airlines - What ever happened to boxed lunch?
5. United Airlines - Mostly not so young flight attendants but nice.
6. Continental Airlines - I get a whole can of Coke and my favorite peanuts.
7. British Airways - Very generous with minibottles of wine. I never got my request of water though - probably due to my accent.
8. Scandinavian Airway System (SAS) - I've never seen a flight attendant talked to a guy for 10 minutes. I wondered what they were talking about? Did not like the food being a carnivore.
9. Alitalia - Satisfactory service. No complaints.
10. Turkish Airlines - My latest flight to Cairo. Pretty good. So far the best. We were met on board by a real chef. The food was plentiful and served every few hours. I did not go hungry. The flight attendants are all young, beautiful and very helpful. I kept pressing (accidentally) the button and right away the smiling attendant was at my side. Watched all the in-flight movies.
