Not bad at all . I got mine from qatar last trip for just 11 days to lahore for around 1,50,000/- Rupees . im thinking to try bussines class for qatar or emirates next time . its roughly or around 2,70,000/- rupee but worth it .

haven't traveled that much and out of that limited international travel it has been all on Emirates, i am going to share a funny (as per my friends it was funny to be being the victim it was annoying like anything) story about a DXB -> KHI flight.
KHI - DXB - MUN - DXB - KHI (Karachi - Dubai - Munich - Dubai - Karachi)
From Karachi to Dubai it was horrible, from Dubai to Munich it was the most amazing flight ever as it was none other than A380 .. amazing plane, amazing service can't complain about anything, Even the economy seats in the A380 were comfy and had enough room.
Now comes the funny/annoying story, Coming from DXB to KHI it was i think 8am flight, first due to a technical problem the board started at the scheduled take off time, i was under lot of stress and anxiety plus was up all night (had to cancel all meetings and plans and had to rush back to Karachi because my daughter was impatient to come in this world). I ended up sitting with a pathan bhai (with all due respect to my pathan brothers here) he seemed like a labour type person and his sole aim in the fucking life was to press every button on the seat and remote, once he was satisfied with his side he decided to see if buttons on my seat and turn table does the same or not.
Annoyed like anything i asked the polite air hostess if i can sit in the front aisle seat since plane was nearly empty, she said i could after take off i can, during taxi that particular person sitting next to me was on his mobile explaining each and everything to someone in pushto while not having his seat belt on, when he was sternly told by air hostess to turn it off and wear belt he shut the phone off and much to my amusement tied the seat belt like shalwar ka naara i was like WTF I NEED TO FUCKING REACH KARACHI NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW !!!!!
After take off i immediately sat in front window seat trying to admire DXB from air just to have a strange sensation on my elbow, it turns out that pathan bhai was not done fucking with my mind had somehow managed to squeeze his leg from the gap and his "clean" feet were rubbing against my elbow ... i changed my seat again and nodded off (thankfully)

i've had a few good and bad experiences with almost every airline. here are some i can remember off the top of my head. i'll add more later.
PIA: 5.5/10
I'm not really a fan of PIA to be honest. I usually take their eastern routes because sometimes they are the only choice. and they use their 35 years old A310s which rattle and shake. i cone mind the shaking and rattling much. its a cheap flight so i can expect at least that much. what i don't like are the delays. i've taken a total of 25 PIA flights and 20 of those flights were delayed longer than 3 hours. Then there's the desi crowd of PIA. Why cant you just sit in the seat allotted to you on your boarding card. why do you have to argue with the stewardess before take off. take your ****ing seat and sit the **** down. Also stop bringing 10 ton bags into the cabin. Because of their bags i can never find enough space in the overhead lockers for my small bagpack which only has my laptop and my tablet.
then there's the food. its a horrible mix of whatever they found rotting at the back of the fridge. Honestly, i'd rather eat my own hair than eat that disgusting plate of sick they call food.
Air China: 4/10
They are worse than PIA. took them once and will never take em again. the seats are so cramped that anyone taller than 6ft cannot sit comfortably. the staff is rude. the other passengers are rude. the food isnt food. the cabin smells of a cocktail of noxious fumes. and the ride will break your spine.
oh and their business class makes PIA look good.
Thai Airways. 7/10
Great service, great crew. didn like the food but that isnt a big negative. the cabin is quiet and comfortable the other passengers aren't as rowdy.
China Southern: 3/10
Same as Air China just slightly worse
American Airlines 7/10
Great service. great crew. tho i only used it on a few domestic routes in the US, the experience was still very good.
British Airways 7/10
London LHR > New York JFK. The flight was very good, the cabin crew were very polite. Food was again the negative point.
Emirates. 6/10
Hmmmmmm what can i say about emirates here............
well they have double standards the flights in/outbound to PK are the worst flights you'll ever experience. you'll see people that aren't really behaving like people should be. you'll see the smiles on the stewardesses faces turn into anger. the service on non PK routes is excellent and probably unmatched by other airlines.
Etihad. 9/10
The best airline in my opinion. i haven't traveled on anything better yet. The Crew has always been nice (that may be because i carry chocolates and pass em out to the crew). They literally take care of your every need. The cabins are very clean and everything smells nice. they dont use the cheap strong masking airfreshners but the expensive light smelling ones which is amazing since you can sometimes taste the strong ones in your food.
The Ground staff is even more amazing. i've been bumped up to business class at the gate every 2/3 times, their business class doesnt really have much to look at but the seats are very comfortable. the entertainment system is top notch, you get a whole menu where you get to select your food instead of being given whatever is available.
In my opinion Etihad is the best airline out there.

The crew wasn't fluent in English but they were all very nice, the flight was smooth almost no turbulence but economy class had no entertainment systems, don't know about first class. The food was not very good it was served cold (like refrigerated cold). I'd give it a 7/10 but Emirates is definitely better.
Well i hav Emirates flight tonight..lets c how it goes

Going on tonight's EK-615?
Do enjoy an over crowded plane full of crying babies. That's if you're in Economy.
If you're in Business then enjoy!
I find it okay when compared to other airlines?
I travelled in Business class for free
When returning from Hajj, the operations manager or whoever he was turned out to be a childhood friend of my father, the business class of our PIA plane was empty so he allotted them to us without any extra payment. Sakoon mil gaya tha It's one way, and I am trying to make the trip as short as possible since I have a lot of work to do once I get to London.
Yes, I was surprised my self it was the cheapest of all airlines offered to me. When opting for business class choose Emirates, nothing better.
Yea EK 615...crying babies no shit..i have headphones and my s5.
All is well !

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said: -

It has a worst rating on Steam than last years MW3 now. Jeese Sony, how can you fuck it up THIS BAD

faraany3k:
I have heard that it is now unplayable in countries which do not support handful of third world countries not recognized by Sony like Pakistan. Steam is a true global platform.Then they cry that console gaming is dying.
