I have flown Northwest Airlines, Air Canada & Air Canada Jazz. Northwest Airlines is a terrible airline, but I didn't find Air Canada/Jazz much of a problem. Air Canada lost our luggage easily during one flight and Northwest did as well, but the difference was that Air Canada returned it the same day. Northwest had our luggage for a good while. That was in my own experience. However, when my dad went to Japan through Air Canada (he was on business) they lost his luggage for a good while and also broke a bowl he brought back for himself.

I went to Europe on Air India when I was a kid. They served lots of food and it was all curry.

I hated curry for years after that.

First time I flew to London was on Virgin Atlantic. Fantastic airline. The best food, the best entertainment, and the best looking stewardesses . Second time I flew to London was on Air Canada: Worst food, NO entertainment, and seats were terribly uncomfortable.

Now, I always fly between CA and IN on United. Never had a problem with luggage, but I've been delayed and missed a flight once, but they put me on another one a few hours later. No biggie. I'm generally happy with United, and it's always the cheapest.

Eastern
United
Delta
American
Avianca

I haven't flown in a long time, so I don't remember the details of best and worst.

Pilgrim was the smallest, just a commuter plane between Connecticut and NY.

Airlines I flew with.

Ansett(Bankrupt and defunct). Flew to all over capital cities since I was a kid.
Compass Airlines (defunct). Flew once to Melbourne, Great looking paint scheme but sadly this airline went gone due to intense competition from Qantas and Ansett.
Qantas (Domestic) Flew to all over capital cities. Great crew, pilots and land agents. Sadly no more great food for less than 90 mins flight time. They give out peanuts and drinks.
Virgin Blue. Flew to Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane. Great airline, attractive young female crew members, pilots and land agents. I dig Virgin blue a lot for their cheap fares.

Qantas International, flew to United States and England.
Air New Zealand, flew to New Zealand and to United States
VAustralia, flew to United States
United, flew to United States.

The worst airline I flew is United because of rude crew members I encountered with and I had to file complaint to a purser. No action had been made in their part and told me to file with the management after I arrived into the United States.

Best airline is VAustralia because of the great Boeing 777-300ER, great food, captioned blockbuster movies (Hollywood) and also great crew as well.

Thats for 2 cents.

Cheers

It is common that Air Canada loses luggage when their planes are changed in Montreal or Halifax. I have experienced thru this situation occasionally.

You may ask Delta agent that this airline has captioned movies which your flight will be between Sydney and Los Angeles on January.

Northwest
TWA
FRONTIER
Funjet Vacations
Apple Vacations
Delta Airlines
SAS
Midwest Airlines

I liked most of it, since I never had any problems...as long it took me point A to B
Update, I flew on Frontier Airlines to Michigan few years ago. I believe I flew other airlines that I must have forgotten about, hmmm.

I flew aboard Virgin Blue on three different flight routes in Australia during my two weeks vacation and I was impressed with their services especially one in Launceston, Tasmania.
