BA Premium Economy class, A380, from HKG-LHR.

BA (British Airway) and MH (Malaysia Airlines) have launched their new A380 services last year with a newer version.  BA even made their upper deck a bit higher so that you will more room inside the cabin.  Their new premium economy class seat is so much better than their older one.  On board, they served champagne.  Though I don't drink, it's a plus for those who drink.  The service is good in general.  Meal is also very nice (but sorry that the photo for the whole meal set was out-focused - FYI, found out my camera not working too well on board.  (*remarks: lately I learned many electronics can't go above 31,000 feet.)  BA's inflight entertainment has been improved a lot too.  I like their interactive 3D flight map.  So a 13 hour flight seemed not so long, though the flight was quite bumpy and in fact the flight from London to Nice was even worse.  The whole Europe has been in an adverse weather.  BTW, I like BA (and also CX) captain would adjust the flying at a lower altitude when the plane got into some serious turbulence.  Doing this would cost them more fuel (meaning more money).  Unlike UA, SQ and TG, they wouldn't care how the passengers feel, but rather care about their pocket.

BA and Lufthansa are my preferred choices in Europe. :)

Both have been around for years.
Old timer airways usually have proven track record.
