Iberia is probably the best ratio quality-price company. Nice service, excelent food, and one of the companies with less accidents. By the way, Iberia was the second most punctual airline in Europe and fifth in the world . It has improved a lot in the last years.

Well the secret is out! This is one of my favourite routes. I’ve taken it 2X’s now in business. Not only is the 787 a phenomenal plane, but the Air Tahiti Nui flight attendants are warm and the service is above any US international carrier in business. It’s not a “flagship” business seat meaning it’s a smaller seat and there are 2 seats on the window. It’s the business seat that AA uses for their domestic trans-continental flight, but it’s a good seat and the service in my opinion makes up for it. The BEST part of the flight are the high end Tahitian rums (which might be served upon request only) but now you know. So enjoy one of my favourite airlines. You’ll love it so much, you’ll want to continue on to Tahiti once you land at LAX. Safe travels ✈️

I flew the same flight in mid April. I had a great experience onboard. Sat in a window seat with the seat next was unoccupied. However at CDG the lounge was closed because of some restructuring due to the Olympic games. I will fly it again if I have the opportunity but better business class seats would be a game changer for them.

The author knew he was going to be flying an older aircraft. Also, never thought anyone would complain about their bedding and their amenities being placed on their seats.

Comparing the technology and cabins of a much older generation of airliner to the newest ones is silly. Comparing apples to oranges-

Sad to hear that people somehow expect 'less' of Brussels Airlines (compared to Austrian/Swiss/...). Let's not forget SN is not a 'new' airline, but the successor of Sabena (hence their iata code SN), a legacy carrier founded in 1923 with loads of experience and history (especially in Africa). Great review nonetheless! :)

Whatever the planes are like the staff are truly dreadful. They abandoned me in Madrid, put me (a business class passenger) in a dreadful hotel which didn’t even have a bar, or tea making facilities , just vending machines and the attitude of the staff on the ground and in the air was appalling. You can really tell this is a sister airline of British Airways. Both airlines are a disgrace to their national flags.

This video simply reminds me of how spoiled and entitled we can be! Traveling business class costs, for the plebeian public, a life-savings amount. I know. I am a 75 year old woman planning a trip from Sweden to California to meet with family and friends for the last time in my life. The luxuries of business class are utterly beyond my means. I also understand that paying for a level of service expected from someone for whom flying business class is ordinary is natural, nevertheless this person’s critiques feel excessively petty!

WOW!!!! What a lovely, warm and attentive crew.. Very impressed by the menu too, high quality!! Everything looks so appetizing and fresh!!! Love the Neuhaus box presented to each passenger!!! It’s the small things!!! Unfortunately only used them on Intra-European sectors but after watching this, I would love to try them on long haul, it’s just that they just seem to have quite a limited offer outside of Africa and maybe a couple of North American destinations but on my bucket list for sure!!! Have a great time in beautiful Kenya!!! Hakuna Matata 😊

These seats for the price are the worst seats ever !!! I'm tall and feel like the seats are only designed for people much much smaller - anyone bigger, you're in for a real bad & uncomfortable experience and if you're even slightly over weight, watch out as you will undoubtedly feel the squeeze . And believe me, the toilets are just as bad - so small . "All" the seats are facing away from the windows - so you cannot see out !!! also you cannot sit next to you partner or wife or husband, in fact with the noise of the aircraft you'll struggle to talk to them. I genuinely do not recommend this seating or toilet option - certainly not worth the money. Staff and food was good, everything else a total failure !!!

Have you asked the crew about their permission to film them? Allow me to have my doubts. Are you respecting their rights to privacy ? Are they ok with being shown on a YT video for the entire world to see? It's good to examine their level of service for which you've paid, but what about your level of respect for others?
