Always liked singapore airlines
Are the flight times much different?
I will be flying sq next week, over past ten years their service has always seemed consistent and reliable.

Turns out Emirates are a bit cheaper as you can select your seats for free, 30 quid for each leg of the flight with Singapore.
Do Emirates Economy class seats have a power socket in them on the A380s?
EDIT: Looks like they do, Emirates it is then
OcUK, officially better than Google

I've never flown with Singapore but have done quite a few long hauls with Emirates
They used to be really good but my last few flights with them have just been ok, the meals are nice and the in flight entertainment has lots of movies to choose from but I find the service not as good as it ised to be and some of the staff down right rude and more interested in their appearance than doing their jobs
It's a shame really as I used to enjoy flying with the but feel they are charging premium prices but not providing a premium service these days, or maybe I've just been unlucky.

Singapore airlines use A380's so that's a no from me!
As said both are OK. Toss a coin and enjoy your time down under

Why would you say no to A380's?
As this is my first long haul flight, thats the main reason im choosing between the two haha

Just under £700 quid for Emirates, just over for Singapore.
Also, i've heard drinks are free on trans Atlantic flights, is this the same for UK >> Oz?

I was on an A380 3 weeks ago and tbh once you're in the air you could be on any other plane , the leg room didn't feel much different to the 777-300 I was on the previous flight
Yup.
