I observed number 1 nominee in each category won the award. Is this a coincidence or ..... More so, it killed the suspense of reading through the nominees and comparing the ones you have flown with.

Why is it that one way flight is way more costly than return trip? Was curious after all you won't be returning with them so they can reserve and sell your seat to another passenger, lufthansa return trip ticket Lagos (LOS) to (BUD) Budapest is $567 with economic plus while one way ticket to the same route is $1440,almost triple the amount. Maybe this information could help someone out there to make a better decision before booking a ticket.

Emirates was fantastic on their Boeing 737 & 747, but the ICE on the airbus plying Dubai to Nigeria...woeful. The aircraft itself was rickety, make start dey wonder whether I enter Dana by mistake angry

I have to agree Emirates inflight entertainment is the sh*t...But I'll give their food zero as well as Turkish airlines! Qatar has good food especially their Nigeria Doha route.

For the time being, they should remove Malasyian airlines on any category regardless of what was being measured in those categories, until they account for the missing aircraft and all its passengers. sad sad

Guaranteed sales. Quantity discount. A bird-in-hand. Time value of money, especially if the return is far - they have your money to do business (for profit) or keep in bank (for interest) till the income is earned.

These are the economic/customer service principles that explain that.

I agree with Qatar's food. I've found it difficult to try Emirates or Etihad or Egypt Air in all my UAE trips, just because I enjoy Qatar. Their Inflight entertainment is not bad aswell. Their aircrafts are also new.

thanks for the explanation,another reason of the high price could be to discourage customers not to use it,in the other sense preventing them not to return with their competitors airline.

Turkish airlines food got me throwing up, I dint bother eating the remaining meals on the flight and the connecting one. So far for me Air France takes the lead.
