This thread got me into a discussion with an unnamed SQTalker, and provided the inspiration for this thread topic - would be great to hear your viewpoints.
I counted 266 singles between KUL and SIN that I've done already - always invariably a boeing twin, sometimes bigger, sometimes smaller. Sometimes if I flew with the red and blue kite, i got an A330 (for a change!).
This Berjaya Air service though, has caught my eye. It has all the hallmarks of an interesting "voyage", rather than a "shuttle service". I'm booking one on monday, and I can't remember being this excited about a flight.
I sure like sitting in the nose of a 744, or the upperdeck. I like 777's too, but for short journeys like this, nothing beats a high-winged, turboprop that flies lower, has bigger windows and doesn't have a flight deck door.
What kind of flying appeals to you? A mix of both? Strictly Pressurised? or Puddle Jumpers all the way?
Note: Obviously only applies when you have a choice of both on a given sector. Even I'm not mad enough to get in a prop plane to go SIN-LHR. .......
