Flying in the air is obviously the quickest way to get somewhere, but when you fly, you want to make sure that you’re flying with the best airlines out there.   Since there are so many of them out there, and different brands flying from different airports, it’s hard to determine which airline suits you best.

You’ll find that many people become loyal to an airline, but never try anyone else.  Why do they do this?  I have no idea, but I always suggest you should try at least 5 different airlines, before you settle for one.
