Whilst I’m not sure OneWorld are happy with this,

When is Oneworld ever happy with something? 😉

Interesting. I was lurking around the Star website and couldn’t find the link. Even though you gave me the direct link, out of curiosity, where on the main page do you go to get there?

These are SIGNIFICANTLY above average! I always like landscape pics of NYC.

I just got onto their website just fine right now. I flew them and I like them. Much better than your typical lo-co, in my opinion, plus they have Star Alliance Gold lounges. 😀

Well, it no longer happens as Kai Tak has been closed for some time now. However, when it was operational, the approach to rwy 13 was not straight in because of a mountain. The pilots had to aim for a checkerboard on said mountain, and make a right turn more or less at the last minute and come in. Plus you had crosswinds galore given it’s proximity to the mountains and the ocean.

Kabir, I agree with Sandy. Obviously there is no current interest in a 747 project from operators. Right now, everything is just theoretical, but if Boeing went to airlines such as Singapore, QANTAS, Cathay, British Airways, and especially JAL and ANA (as they are VERY PRO-BOEING), with a concrete plan, then I think something could happen. It would obviously have to be a major improvement over the current model that incorporates more fuel efficient engines, increased use of composites, greater range, fly-by wire, a new wing, etc.

Well, your travel agency (or whomever/whatever you’re getting your package from) could book you on Virgin to/from the states, and UA or AA within the States. More often than not, sticking with a particular carrier or alliance is typically cheaper, unless you do separate itineraries. I always do my planning on my own, so I don’t know. I will pay more to make sure I’m maximizing my miles. 😀

I’m gonna emmigrate to the USA and become a teacher… LOL

You do that! 😀
