I have friends, who I would describe as reasonably fussy on service standards, who have been happily travelling Malaysian for years now mainly Australia to LHR and back, via KL.
I'm a Qantas FF so only go QF to overseas destinations..although I have used Singapore and Cathay in th epast who were both good inflight (my memory is of smooth and friendly inflight service on Singapore).
My friends have always seemed to enjoy the the Malaysian service.
Cheers
