Bro it's way too much.

Giving you two warnings:
1. There's a forecast for rain tonight.
2. The plane for tonight's EK-615 service is 7 years old and its refurbished, if there's one thing Emirates sucks at, it's refurbishing. The seats creak, TV's flicker/freeze and the tray table is always a bit loose.
:)

It'll be a good one, the flight to Beijing has a flight path that flies right over Islamabad. :)

I would rate Emirates 9/10. It is world's best airline for a reason. Travelled on their 777's from
ISB-DXB and on their A380's from DXB-LHR & MAN. Awesome services. Friendly cabin crew. Good Food and entertainment systems (Especially Wifi facility). Will be travelling to USA INSHA ALLAH next year on this airline :)

For Domestic i use air blue. I would rate it 8/10. Good private airline. Friendly crew. Good food. Limited entertainment system (Tablets). The best part is the flight is always on time. Especially the ISB-KHI & KHI-ISB route :D

Well I have only traveled once so far and it was from Islamabad to Abu Dhabi 6 years ago on Etihad airways economy class.
Really liked it. Clean aircraft, nice food, nice seats, friendly staff etc.
One thing I found funny was that people most probably waited for the toilet in the aircraft instead of relieving themselves in the waiting area because the moment we took off, the toilet was constantly in use, for 3 straight hours, till we landed. :p

If I have to rate it, would give it 8.5/10.

Please share your experience. For international flight is it better to buy ticket online like Expedia.com etc or from travel agent. Refund issues on cancellation. Thanks

No one ever been in C-130....Haha, its a real fun...frequently when we travelled from Khi to Isb and vice versa. I never ever got a chance to get seated, covered the whole puking journey standing :crying:
C-130 wasn't designed for transporting passengers. It's a cargo plane so any makeshift facilities for travelling are usually very uncomfortable. Mesh seats with no proper seat belts and it doesn't even have windows for peeking outside!
It is more of an airborne coffin. lol

Haha, yes, but it does have windows, my only temptation to travel while standing was to look out of those windows, but you can not see through the windows while you are seated because they are way higher.

Yeah I forgot that part. Can't view outside while sitting. It also doesn't help that 'seats' are placed along the wall. You're forever inclining towards either neighbour during the plane's ascend and descend.

What's the worst passenger experiences you guys have had?

My top 2 are: one was this group who had packed some tea or juice in their luggage and put them directly my seat in the overhead compartment... moments after takeoff after the plane rolls right left it starts leaking and for a long time everyone was trying to find out where It was coming from... worst drip torture ever.
Other was this short stopover in dubai I had. So the plane fills with couple dozen pakistanis typical of dubai flight... only this time someone let rip a silent but very very oh very deadly made in dubai but originally cooked in Pakistan fartbomb. Silently.

I still remember the cracking poker face the air hostess had while she roamed our aisle with an air fresher trying desperately wave off the stench.

And they clap when dubai flights land in karachi so... -.-

I sat next to a woman in Economy who took off her shoes and then let her feet lose all over the place. On the other side was an old man who started asking for alcohol even before the plan started taxi and then another guy who was just too smiley for a Pakistani.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
