Well as you no doubt have gathered I live in SE Asia and in the last week have shuttled between Hong Kong,Macau,Bangkok and KL on Air Asia and Jetstar.
The most expensive flight was 2 hours 50 minutes Macau to Don Muang at £60 in a brand new Airbus. Compare that to the rip off fees from Norwich to AMS which is just 50 minutes or indeed Aberdeen.
Flying in this part of the world is a joy with clean modern airports.Even the little Savannakhet terminal in Laos is now better than Norwich.
I have not been in to EGSH for many years but follow the news enough to see nothing has changed. Memories of delays at Schipol and if there was North Sea fog no chance of arriving back in Norfolk. It is what it is. A shed with a cafe and a few local services.
It was at its best back in the early 90's when run by the council.
A lick of paint and some staff training would not go amiss.
As for KLM and their old staff and fleet to match...give me Eva,China Airlines, Singapore or Thai any day.
