Emirates or Malaysian in J?

[mikew]

Hi Guys,

Need to fly MEL-KUL return and have options either with Emirates on Malaysian for around the same price.

Malaysian use A330-300
Emirates use 777-300

Which airline would you recommend?

Cheers

Michael

Flew EK 777-300ER in J last Friday BNE-AKL. It's a morning flight and the breakfast offering was terrible, lucky I had something in their lounge. However the seating on the 300ER is very comfortable and the IFE is excellent.

Every EK lounge I have been in has been outstanding ( except Dubai )

To me it would come down to what time is best. With Emirates leaving at 3:40am, I find it very difficult to get a good sleep on flights that leave at this time. To me both MH flights have better timing. Also I would rate the cabin service on MH better than EK.
