Flying is such an ordeal these days that it's better to be armed with information before you take your coach class seat. At AirlineQuality.com, the website of Skytrax, an air-transport industry research company based in Britain, you can find out how the airlines stack up.

What's hot: The site rates airports, airlines, economy seats, lounges, first and business classes and more. It awards stars to airlines based on their quality in a variety of categories. You'll find reviews by actual fliers, signed with their names and dated. And, yes, you can add your own.

What's not: Adding a category for airline safety rankings would be useful.
