I thought it may be interesting to see who everyone has flown with and their experiences.

As an amatuer traveller I don't have alot to contribute but:

I flew Air Canada (2001) Sydney - Vancouver. This was my first international flight and it didn't start well. We got an hour into the flight, had some engine problems and had to turn around back to Sydney. Cut a long story short, after waiting hours in the crowed little area they realised they couldn't fix it quickly so they shuttled us all to a hotel - which was full. So then we had to shuttle us to another - which could only take half of us, then took the rest to another hotel.

Then the next day on our new flight half the movies didn't work for some reason.

But shit happens. Really wasn't a problem for me although others were less than amused. All adds to the travelling experience. The flight back home went without a hitch.

My only other airline experience is flying domestically with Qantas. Hour and a half flights. Nothing much to say - never had a problem. But it's only a short flight.

Well, that's it. I'm particularly interested if anyone has flown with Vietnam Airlines and Austrian Airlines.
