Here you’ll find a collection of family friendly airlines and reviews on their facilities for kids. Whether you are flying with a baby, toddler or an older child, these airline reviews will let you know what is onboard and what service you can expect on your flight. For a round up of the airlines which provide more than the usual child, baby meals, kids’ activity packs etc  see my top family friendly airlines here.

Most of the airline reviews below are from a family travel and an economy class perspective, but when I have been upgraded or have used points to upgrade to premium economy or business class, the reviews are not only from a family perspective but from a business or solo traveler view point too. Wherever appropriate, lounge reviews are reviewed too.

Delta One V Virgin Atlantic Upper Class Review 

Delta One V Virgin Atlantic Upper Class Review  Once in a while, you may feel like treating yourself, or perhaps have worked hard saving up your air miles, or like my husband, you have to fly a lot for work and one of the perks is having your company stump up the bill for a business class flight. Yes, he certainly gets a lot more premium flights than me!

He recently flew from London Heathrow with Delta to Detroit and then returned on Virgin Atlantic via Atlanta. Both have a hybrid First/business service rather than the more traditional First and Business cabins and that can make a more premium flight experience more accessible. From his perspective, both airlines provided a great service. But if you’re going Stateside on a family holiday and have the fortunate opportunity to upgrade the flight, who should you choose?

Etihad V Emirates Economy Class

Etihad V Emirates Economy Class:The two UAE owned airlines are renowned for their onboard facilities especially the legroom, recline and in-flight entertainment (IFE). With innovative premium cabins most can only dream of travelling in; including   private suites and even a butler service on Etihad’s Residence class – they are leading the way for premium and business travel.  With both airlines flying similar routes with hubs in the UAE; Emirates in Dubai and Etihad in Abu Dhabi, there is only a short distance between the 2 cities, allowing passengers to choose the airline which best fits their price and schedule. However, if it’s all very similar, who do you choose? Is there really much difference in terms of their economy product?
