International flights to Uganda
 
Hi, I'm considering a possible trip to Entebbe, Uganda in about a year. Was looking at possible airfares and was hoping someone could recommend or advise against any of these airlines:

Etihad Airways
Brussels Airlines
Qatar Airways
Egyptair

Have you flown with any of these airlines? Was your experience with them good, bad, or just ok? Thanks for any replies. Greg V.

I've never flown those but skytrax rates Ethiad and Qatar as two of about ten 5* carriers world wide whereas the other two are rated 3*'s so it's a no brainier for me.
Go www.airlineequality.com to get this info. It's quite extensive.

Oops. It's www.airlinequality.com

Where are you flying from? That would possibly impact my decision more than anything. But, assuming that schedules were equal, I would choose Qatar.

I would be departing either from Newark, NJ (EWR) or JFK.

I've never been to Uganda. Brussels Airlines had a long history of serving quite a few destinations on the African continent. It is well respected among people there. They fly from JFK to BRU. They also codeshare with United, which would get you from Newark to Brussels.
