2 hour connection time in Seoul to make plane to Bangkok. Giant security lineup. Lots of worry over making flight reduced joy of flying via KE/Incheon. This was a repeat of my flight in Nov 2022, so apparently is the new normal for KE. Flight was boarding after I was forced to jog what seemed to be 2 miles from security to my departure gate. Please fix this. I still cannot understand that if you have already been screened in Canada for dangerous items, and there is no opportunity to obtain any between one plane and the next, why you should be screened AGAIN.
Pros: "The service was quick and friendly."

Pros: "Good service. Feed you twice. Which is great. But on a red eye. You want to sleep."
Cons: "Plane feels dated. A title tired."
Pros: "The crew was awesome. They were attentive. The always said they were sorry as the went down the aisle with the cart. They made sure they didn’t disturb you while you were sleeping. The food was awesome. I can’t explain it you have to go on a trip with them and experience it."
Cons: "Seats could always be more comfortable."
Pros: "That the bathrooms are kept clean."
Cons: "Lack of beverage service. For an 11.5 hour flight they could have come around more often to offer pop or alcoholic beverages."
Pros: "Great service, plenty of leg room, exceptional staff. Toilets refreshed often. Will def fly again."
Cons: "More detailed online infor for kids food. Australian fried rice varies greatly from korean!!! Potato crisp packets of chips would be a good snack option for kids instead of prawn crackers / brownies. Kids like plain stuff!"
Pros: "The airline accommodated by request for special meal with a very good seafood meal at each serving."
Cons: "Touchscreen did not work on the entertainment; everything had to be controlled from the remote control."
Pros: "The flight attendants were very attentive, I just thought it was weird that they aren’t allowed to take pictures? That was the only strange thing. Overall one of the best experiences with an airline compared to most. Probably because of the unlimited tasty beverages ;)"
Cons: "Strange that flight attendants can’t take pictures like stated above. And the video games are horribly outdated!"
Cons: "My seat was broken and uncomfortable. 13 hour flight and you can’t lean back one bit"
wanted hindi vegetarian meal but that as a no-go
Cons: "Was never notified that my wife would not be allowed to board the plane due to travel. Neither the airline or travel agency warned me of this."
Cons: "I didn't like that all of the shades for the windows were down for the whole flight. It's too many hours in the dark. We took off at noon and spent the entire flight in the dark. Too many hours in the dark. Then land when night time. More darkness. With flight and wait till sun rise it's like 26 hours of darkness."
Cons: "Baggage claim took forever. I waited 45 mins for mine to show up."
Pros: "Efficient boarding"
Cons: "Seats extremely cramped especially when seat in front reclined. Will look for other airline on next trip due to this problem."
Pros: "1. Kind and accommodating flight attendants 2. The provided earbuds/earphones are great since they provide a bit of noise cancelling or at least block out extra noise"
Cons: "Lock ( tsa approves) to )my luggage was damaged or deliberately cut off that it is difficulty to Manage the zipper with ease. Since the luggage’s were retrieved at end of the trip, I am not sure where these damaged occurred , either in states or Taipei or when tsa did their search, I do not have any noticed paper to explain the cause of damage lock either"
Pros: "Good international films. Food was ok."
Cons: "First time the bathrooms did not feel or smell fresh. I fly EVA because of the way they keep their bathrooms clean."
Pros: "The flight attendants were very friendly and helpful."
Cons: "The seats were uncomfortable for us taller people in economy class."
Cons: "No way to tell them that I am vegetarian. And only if I buy tickets with their site I can get it :("
Cons: "They fed us expired food. Expired ice cream and expired yogurt. They could not put my wife and me together and I believe that it violates a new law passed by Senator Chuck Shummer. It made it difficult for me to get her medicine to her. On a short flight it wouldn’t matter as much. But we had to endure it for 15 hours. They only fed us two meals instead of 3. Other airlines put a sticker in front of you if you slept through the meal time."
Pros: "Fast and easy to board nice crew worked fast and smooth large proposal for entertainment"
Cons: "more diversity of beverage offered Also please propose coffee or tea before/after dinner and breakfast, nobody proposed me and I thought it would come later but nothing came. I should have asked before the end of the service but I was surprised it wasn't coming automatically."
Pros: "The crew was amazing and the food was great too!"
Pros: "Food and entertainment was great"
Cons: "Dirty bathrooms, cramped seats, and still can't believe they still load the front of the plane first... takes forever"
Pros: "The food was amazing, and the cabin crews were all very nice people. I would love to use Cathay Pacific in my next trip. Also, I loved that they provide a lot of diverse movies from all over the world, along with good music lists."
Cons: "Honestly i think there are not much space for each passenger."
Cons: "The breakfast vegetarian food didn’t have any taste! Serve some real food!"
Pros: "Everything was top notch,crew were super professionals,food was delicious,look forward to flying with them again!!was one hour early on first leg of journey"
Cons: "Softer seats"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The baggage of all first class passengers was delayed beyond the time of the later flight .. ridiculous .. also flight delayed as is usual tor all flights in and out of Bangkok. The food on the flight is not appealing .. the front of the seat fell down onto the legs.."
Pros: "Good crew, very patient with the crowd. Food was very decent on this flight unlike the previous"
Pros: "Loved the crew, very helpful and attentive."
Cons: "Food could be better. No goodies like toothbrush or paste or sleep mask, but this is minor. Website is really bad and hard to check-in online. They could really simplify the website and allow folks to add their favorite miles in there. just so complicated to do anything on the website."
For a long-haul flight, the crew did a very good job of keeping the lavatories clean and the aisles clear.
Overall, it was a good flight. I was comfortable, that TV screen was large. It’s just the food wasn’t that great.
The crew was pleasant and polite, but the flight was again delayed for about 30 minutes.
Cons: "Six empty seats in the “emergency row” I was not feeling well and needed the extra space.5 hours into the 13 hr long haul to Taipei, I felt like I was going to hyperventilate, they charged me $120. Bucks for the privilege. Kosher meal was unbeatable."
Pros: "Everything was good, comparing with other airlines with higher price, China airline was the best"
Cons: "Food could have been better"
Pros: "Excellence in crew's attitude, promptness in service, very courteous."
Cons: "A bit more bathroom diligence would have been nice, but the passengers seemed quite messy."
Pros: "Restroom was kept clean throughout the flight which impressed me"
Pros: "I like the staff was very nice, and boarding process was not bad."
Cons: "The aircraft was extremely dirty, also my seat was saturated with a spilled drink and it was all over the seat and the tray table and tv, there was old food crusted on the seat back. I didn’t want to touch a thing thank god it was only a two hour flight. Very very outdated."
Pros: "Quick boarding, staff english is good. Good movie selection."
Cons: "seat not very cushioned, food is okay. Low TV documentary selection."
Pros: "good it was not a long flight."
Cons: "The crew was a bit negligent. They passed me when serving the food just because the aisle seat passenger next to me was served his special meal earlier, so they did not notice that the passenger at the window seat (which was me) had no tray in front of him when running the regular meal service. Isn't this sloppy !? Problem is that once they passed you, it's hard to get their attention, as they are always in a hurry, and not looking over the cabin just to check if someone needs something or wants to call on them for any reason, and there are no attendant calling buttons available. So you have to wait until they come by your seat again. Finally I got my meal with apologies 15 minutes later, but the experience was already ruined and the negative impression built.. Also, when departing from Taipei, the boarding process was a bit disorganized, compared with the one we had in Vancouver. As for as the entertainment, the LCD monitor at my seat was pretty worn out, with very poor contrast, making it difficult to watch a movie or read information. Same airline with two opposing experiences: Vancouver-to-Taipei very good, Taipei-to-Manila: poor."
As always with Air Canada, the flight left late, one hour in this case. But, apparently the whole system was late, passengers were assured they would make their connections. Once we left the flight was fine.
Everything was efficient and comfortable. The food was typical airline fair, and steamed into oblivion. Service was prompt and friendly
Ridiculous expensive! United airlines/Air Canada partnership is a joke.
Be honest with your passengers about the delays .. we had a delay of over 6 hrs and found out later the carrier knew that but still checked us in with an impossible boarding time as the plane was still delayed in the air and on route.
I tried to upgrade my seat and was not allowed to do so with the online check in. Gate agents went through the boarding doors so they could not be talked to. Awful.
It will be good to have Duty Free on board, as it was before COVID.
Didn’t even make this flight bc air Canada caused me to miss it and make an extra stop in Lyon France
I'm traveling with my wife and we had separate seats? Wtf?
Pros: "Nostalgic plane ride"
Cons: "Use more modern plane for these short trips. No drinks offered due to turbulence. Old Bombardier plane had no way of storing carry-ons other than beneath seat, thus limiting leg space"
Pros: "The crew was kindly and friendly"
Cons: "The plane was very uncomfortable, no entertainment at all if you don’t have your own device"
