    why
    Food may be delicious at higher classes. But Saudia doesn't really give a damn about customers. Their service is crap, especially out of aircraft. They know that their seats will be fully booked most time because of Makkah yeah, so they think they don't need to care about service. My last experience of Saudia, I got left out at airport due to bloody error which I forgot the reason. Soooo, no more Saudi Arabian Airlines for me. Other arab airlines like Emirates or Qatar or Etihad are simply awesome! But I heard that Saudi Airline's first class is very cheap and food is great. Never try economy for Saudia.

    Qatar has the best economy in the world! The food service and generally everything is too a 5star standard

    Emirates (best one), Lufthansa (their in flight entertainment is still shocking, even on the A380), KLM, SAS, Turkish, Cathay Pacific, Air France, Virgin Atlantic, Easyjet, Jet2, Thomas Cook, TUIFly, First Choice
    plus Air China, China Southern, China Eastern, Hainan Airlines and Sichuan Airlines for domestic flights

    I still have no idea why Thai Airways was included in top ten. They suck actually, in many ways!

    I've only flown Thai Airways once, from Sydney to Bangkok, but it was a great flight, I was impressed with the aircraft (777-200), the crew, the food, and the entertainment.

    Would definitely fly with them again if I'm ever heading that way.

    hmm :/ my flight was just terrible. it wasn't also connected to air bridge, we had to take bus and walk. and that is the international flight, Airbus A330. food was just crap at that time and crew too, they are old and so inefficient.
