seasider Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 I have been looking at flights dep: LDN-BKK and these two airlines, along with Oman Air are coming up cheapest. Departure times for all three are almost identical as is arrival time into Bkk. Return journey is similar on Jet and Kingfisher but not so good on Oman, as the departure from Bkk is 6.40am, very early wake up time(or an all nighter) and there is a 4-5 hour wait in transit in Oman. I have seen a few reviews for Oman and for Jet but nothing for Kingfisher, anyone flown with these airlines? If so, any good? Flight full or empty? (spare seats means i might be able to stretch out and get some sleep). Also, what was the transit airport like and was security check while in transit a hassle? Just looking for an alternative airline, Etihad are not as cheap as they were three or four years ago, likewise with some of the other mid-east airlines at the moment.

roamer Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Kingfisher are rated 5*****. Check them and Jet out below. I would never fly on Jet again , crap these days, a lot of others on here think the same if you do a search. Going Kingfisher myself in August so will find out New route so thats why its coming in cheaper. Airline Reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people abbreviate london to LDN, of course seeing as i was talking about airports, i should have used airport code, sorry i forgot but im sure you knew what i meant anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keemapoot Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I've flown several times on Kingfisher and it is tops. I have only flown domestic flights in India though, but the planes are new, the food is good, the fight attendants great, and every seat, even coach, has a seat-back TV with many channels of entertainment. Top airline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
