Hi all,
I'm hoping to go to Oz for about 3 weeks next September, and would like your feedback/advice/tips on the best way to get there. Currently looking at 2 options:
(a) travel via Dubai/Abu Dabi with Emirates/Etihad. Currently this option is about €400 cheaper than option 2 (obviously a big plus). However the duration of the 2 leg flight is about 7 and then 16 hours. The second half is very long so wonder if I will be shattered when i get to Oz. Have never flown with either and have seen mixed reviews. Anyone used either?
(b) travel with Singapore Airlines. I've been to Oz a few times using Qantas, SING and Malaysia, and found them the best airline to travel with. Downside is that it is more expensive, the plus is that the flight legs are about 14 and 8 hours, so second leg much better.
What about Dubai/Abu Dabi as a stopover for a few days? Or Singapore? Never toured any of them. I will be travelling on my own. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
