Why are airlines in Asia run so poorly?

Question

I flew Cathay Pacific, Singapore and ANA airlines.

Things I don't like.

1. Stewardesses are mostly over 50 unattractive fat ladies with bad attitude.

2. Food is mostly warm sandwich with room temperature Coke and other beverages like beer and spirit cost huge extra.

3.Headsets cost like five dollars and look dirty.

4.Only one sandwich for entire 11 hour trip.

5. On board entertainment is very limited and movies are old.

6. Planes are very old and as if they were buses.

On my back I flew American airlines economy class and the difference is:

1.Stewardesses are young, elegant, beautiful, polite and attentive.

2. Food is 3 full course gourmet meals with free flow of good wines , brandy and choice of cocktail drinks. Special meals are available .

3.Headsets are brand new and disposable. we even get socks, tooth brush, tooth paste, comb, razors in a bag.

4. Frequent servings of juices and nice snacks.

5. Hundreds of movies on board.

6. Planes less than 5 years old.

Answer 1

You got it round the wrong way. For about 15 years now thr "Airline of the year" award has always been won by an Asian or Middle Eastern airline.

American carriers are amoung the worst I have ever flown with, old aircraft and robbot cabin crew, so fake!!

Answer 2

I think you got it all backwards.  Singapore, Cathay Pacific and ANA are the best run airlines and have the highest rating for in-flight service.

American Airlines has a fleet that averages over 14 years of age.

Hong Kong's airport is really new and Singapore's Changi has won awards.  The U.S. has older airports.
