Advice wanted
23 September 2003 11:04I'm looking into booking a flight to Chicago for Z-con and it basically comes down to three choices. I want a direct flight, because there's less can go wrong on a direct flight (remembering how it once took me 37 hours to get from Heathrow to Oklahoma City, due to delays on each leg of the flight, and I had to change 3 times). I want to fly from Heathrow because, Gatwick... *spit* (Heathrow is much easier for me to get to is the real reason, I've got nothing against Gatwick as an airport).
So, flying from world's busiest international airport (Heathrow) to world's busiest airport (O'Hare) unsurprisingly there's a wealth of choice. Naturally I'm looking at the cheapest options. But there's not much in it (about £20) between American Airlines, United Airlines and British Airways (BA).
BA I know. I've flown BA to various destinations round the world quite a few times. I've also flown United to the US in the past and don't recall having any complaints. Don't think I've flown American, but am not sure.
So, anyone got any comments on whether either United or American have a bad or, hopefully, good reputation?
