January 24, 201115 yr Hey guys,Just had this thought in my head and said why not.As the title says, which are they for you?Here's what I think:Lufthansa -> I tend to associate ABBA alot with this airline, due to the awesome simplicity in ABBA songs. A proof that simplicity is awesome. I also love to play "Dancing Queen" on takeoff with the 747-400. Along with that, classic music goes very well with LH. Canon Major in D from Pachebel and Ode to Joy, symbolizing Europe.British Airways -> Now I am probably going to get flamed for that, but the only singer that makes think of that airline is Sophie Ellis Bextor, just because of the wonderful English accent she has. I do not know alot of british singers so yeah.. :( Air Canada -> Celine Dion, just because I once heard her sing in one of their commercials, It stood that way, in my mind. For their long haul fleet I associate songs from Nelly Furtado, somehow. Aeroflot -> Red Army Choir, especially the cossack's song on take off, seeing those black fumes from the TU-154.Austrian -> It has to be Blue Danube by Franz Joseph Strauss, That airline is just, Classic.What about you guys? :D

January 24, 201115 yr Saw the video for that song, made me laugh Dee Snider is one of the great, unsung comedy geniuses of the past century. And most people don't even know he's joking!

January 24, 201115 yr The only one that makes any sense is North West Airlines = Ice Cube ! And Virgin a stretch would be Daft Punk but that's only because they're on Virgin.
January 25, 201115 yr You guys have WAY too much time on your hands..LOL!! C172P N97674 PPL SEL Complex High Performance
January 25, 201115 yr British Airways -> Now I am probably going to get flamed for that, but the only singer that makes think of that airline is Sophie Ellis Bextor, just because of the wonderful English accent she has. I do not know alot of british singers so yeah.. :( BA has to be the Rolling Stones for me. Been around for ages but now looking more than a bit elderly and past their best, trading on their reputation rather than the quality of their output and charging over-inflated prices for the privilege. IMHO.
January 26, 201115 yr Astraeus -> Iron Maiden :( Couldn't think of a better one! Onur K. Visit my FS blog: Clear Right...
