Malaysian Airlines- what are they like?

[merlin]

Cheap in comparison for UK to Oz but don't want to e stuck on a ropey plane for 24 hrs!!!

Very good, although it is some years since I used them. Useful bump for you!

Thank you!

Very good but again, was some years ago.

Same as pp, 6 years ago, luxury compared to a short haul plane. Own tv, free food and drink etc.

I can't be sure, but I think when you stopover (KL or Singapore) you may change to another plane anyhow but the 13 hour stint from UK will be out of the way.

Would recommend them. Just flew back from KL 3 weeks ago with them.

I recall flying from Dubai to Frankfurt with Malaysia when our Emirates flight was severely delayed. We were in Business Class. Champagne and Satay on boarding. Food was lovely. Nice plane. Up there with Emirates and Singapore Airlines IMO.

Thanks all. To those who have flown them more recently amI right in thinking they replaced their fleet fairly recently?

Some older reviews I read said planes were uncomfortable and a bit tired?
