Which aircraft is safest to fly long haul?
I’m booking a trip to Europe, and can’t decide between a nonstop on a Boeing 777 with British Airways or a one stop on a 757 and 737 with Continental. Researching, both have problems with icing, and the 777 is all over the news because of two incidents with icing. Which is best?
While icing is a common occurrence in aviation, I don’t think it should be the difference between choosing 2 airlines. Question, are you fearful of flying?
Both, these airlines planes fly often and are maintained to high standards. If you do a bit more research, you’d see we pilots have many ways of combating icing, and the planes are more than equip ed to deal with it.
The 2 isolated accidents should not be taken as generalisations.
I would choose the larger plane, with less stops. I know british is a bit more generous with leg room, and service.
