  • Onboard Singapore Airlines - London
    Onboard Singapore Airlines

    I flew to London from Melbourne, Australia (via Singapore). It is about an 8 hour flight from Melbourne to Singapore, then I was in transit and waited at the airport for about 3 and a half hours, then from Singapore to London it took about 12 hours. On such a long flight you really want to fly with a company that is going to keep you comfortable (especially when flying Economy Class like I did). Singapore Airlines was fantastic, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was excellent and I never had to ask for anything. In every seat on your arrival is a pillow and blanket, but there was also a little travel case, with socks, a comb, a toothbrush and toothpaste. The seats are comfortable and adjustable. The meals were good and differed on each flight, they cater to Vegetarians and Vegan (although you have to organize this when buying your tickets as it comes under ‘special’ meal). But the best thing about Singapore Airlines is the entertainment – KrisWorld! They have a selection of over 100 programmes (movies and TV programmes from all over the world), over 200 music CDs (of all genres) as well as video games, the flight plan of your plane and much more. I have flown over to Europe and back twice, and of the two airlines I’ve flown, I found Singapore Airlines to be the better company. To view photos I took on the plane while flying to London, please check out my Pictures From The Air!!! travelogue from my homepage.

  • My plane at the airport in KL - London
    My plane at the airport in KL

    My second trip to Europe I decided to try a different airline and went with Malaysia Airlines from Melbourne, Australia to London (via Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia). It took about 8 and a half hours to get to KL, and then about 11 and a half to get to London from there. Malaysia Airlines was good, and I have to admit that the food was a bit nicer than it was on Singapore Airlines (they also cater to Vegetarians and Vegans, but you must arrange this when booking your tickets). The seats were comfortable, but on my flights between Melbourne and Kuala Lumpur the spacing of the seats was not comfortable. The usual seating goes: 3 seats - aisle - 4 seats - aisle - 3 seats. On these trips it went: 2 seats - aisle - 5 seats - aisle - 2 seats, and when you're in one of the middle 5, it is not very comfortable. Also, especially on the flights between Melbourne and KL again, the entertainment was good, but very limited. The selection for music was very good, and you could follow the flight plan of the plane.

    Heathrow is London’s major airport. It opened in 1929 as a small base for flight tests and became an international airport in 1946. There are 4 terminals and a direct underground rail link which takes an hour to reach central London.

    There are daily flights from Málaga to all london airports with most airlines. This time i went to Easy Jet for 130 euros return to london Gatwick and time flight was ok 10.45 am going out and 20.45 going back on sunday, i could spend more time in London. Hay vuelos diarios desde Málaga a todos los aeropuertos de londres con la mayoría de compañias aereas inglesas o de bajo coste. Esta vez volé con easy jet a Londres Gatwick por 130 euros y la hora del vuelo era la ida a las10.45 de la mañana y la vueltaa las 20.45, así que aproveché bién tanto el día de ida como de vuelta.

    London-Heathrow is the busiest airport in London and the UK and one of the busiest in the world. From the gate to the passport control is one big, l-o-n-g walk but the airport is well signed so getting lost isn't that easy (IMO). Beware of the long lines at the passport control. There are some things I found weird about their security procedures (and with that said, this I offer is my humble opinion and not a questioning of these as I'd do anything to come and leave London safely): they won't let you enter the security check if you (1) have more than 1 piece of hand baggage and (2) don't have a printed boarding pass (I usually fly with my Eurobonus card and they know it works as a boarding pass), (3) they have 2 security checks - the first one for you and your hand baggage and the second one for your shoes. On the first security check I had to wait until the female police (or guard?) was done searching a muslim woman that was covered basically from head to toe (not her face tho - and btw nice fabric and colors!) in case she wanted to do her search with the hand machine device (which she didn't want to do!). The second security check is badly placed basically in front of the tax free shop so it was like being on a traffic jam...of people. Going to Heathrow by public means is very easy. You can either take their Heathrow Express, Heathrow Connect or the good old tube (line towards Cockfosters). If you happen to fly to or from LHR, please take the necessary time to be there before your flight because the lines are LONG for everything, even buying food.

    Americans are often routed through Heathrow when travelling to destinations around Europe and Eastern Europe. On my last trip, I tried flying daytime rather than over night...and I would highly recommend it. Jet lag was much less because I had a normal night of sleep on both ends. (cannot sleep on the flight) I pampered myself terribly by staying overnight at the hotel in the airport before continuing on. Height of luxury. HOWEVER... I really wasn't happy with Heathrow. It's huge, poorly planned, and definatelyl NOT user friendly. You walk for miles for everything. Hallways with people movers are dismal and in great need of paint. The general maintenance of the airport is poor. When you are transported within the complex on a bus...the route takes you through the most twisted unappealling areas you would ever imagine. I understand they are trying to expand the airport again because their ratings are slipping. I say they had better clean up what they already have. The main terminal area is dominated by retail sales and passengers have minimal uncomfortable seating ... none of which is restfull. Corridors are too narrow to accomodate the crowds. Restrooms are minimal. There is one quiet room provided with a couple of computers and it is like being in a 1955 closet. Next trip I will use another airport for my connecting flights...for sure.

    I flew American Airlines from JFK to London-Heathrow. They have about 6 flights a day going and coming from Heathrow. They leave about every 2 hours. Good flight with no delays and plenty of security.

    Flying to London from Amsterdam

  • To get to London it is easiest and cheapest to choose on of the low-budget companies like Easyjet or Ryanair. We chose Easyjet, as I live near Amsterdam Airport and Ryanair doesn't fly from here. Easyjet will fly from Amsterdam to Luton and Gatwick, to fly to Luton is cheaper on most flights. I paid around 100 EURO's, which is quite expensive for an easyjet flight to London, because I booked relatively late. The fare for a single ticket can start already at 14.90 incl. taxes! Recently Basiqair also started to fly to London. Basqair flies to Stansted and fares start at 9 EUR one way excl. taxes. Ryanair flies to London Stansted from the dutch airports Eindhoven, Groningen and Maastricht. BMI flies to Heathrow from Amsterdam....return fare as low as 112 EUR incl. taxes. http://www.easyjet.com/ http://www.basiqair.com/ http://www.ryanair.com/ http://www.flybmi.com/
