Cabin crew provided great service and seats were very comfortable. A350 plane is excellent. Business class meals were definitely notches above economy, but the combinations of food items could have been better.
Sichuan Airlines was surprisingly great. The crew is fabulous, the plane was fantastic and nice and new (A350-900). I had a particularly nice flight attendant who kept me informed of all the flight progress and meals. I also got to sleep really well. Entertainment and food is more tailored to majority (Chinese) so I can’t really complain about that. Overall fantastic flight!
Very old business class seats, not fully flat, angled with a bar sticking in your back; seats old and apparently never cleaned, no mattress topper either, not the standard expected in J (also in awful 2-2-2 layout)! Ancient entertainment system of the pop-out type with tiny, old screen. Staff are OK but not proactive, need to be solicited, and of limited English skills, but they do try. Food and beverage options very limited (go for Chinese selection as their Western food is atrocious), no menu given and no dine-on-demand option. All in all, only choose if at a significant discount.
Definitely not top-of-the-range business class, but the A350 is certainly better than their other planes which feature an even older business class. Food/drink offerings are very limited and not up to business class standard, but OK. Staff are keen to help and friendly enough, although poor English language skills. Boarding experience in Rome was poor due to rude Italian staff at gate, but this is not the airline's fault. Onboard entertainment options are mediocre and limited. Sichuan Air is only wort it when obtained at low price and if you basically only want to sleep/rest and bring your own entertainment.
Not sure who to "blame" but I booked the ticket from SiChuan airline overseas. On the day of flight at the airport, I learnt that our passport information was not entered into the system. I was told by the SiChuan airline that this is not the first time that ticket booked overseas missing ID information. Since airport ticket counter does not have authority to add ID information, we have to call SiChuan airline customer service, Luckily, we arrived at the airport early enough to handle this and SiChuan airline customer service has been very helpful.
Dad experience when you check in in chenddu airport , service need to improve
Not good experience when you checkin in China, service need to prove
Was given the wrong food.. asked for chicken was given. Pork
Everything is excellent. I will try to fly with Cathay Pacific on my future trips whenever possible, and I will recommend it to my friends as well.
In between two meals period they're not providing something like banana / cup noodles or bugger. It's really fell sad that I was asking have to wait for 3 hours for second meal. (breakfast)
Great! Internet is below its competition. Poor connectivity quality and speed.
It was a good experience except that the flight has been rescheduled, bit disappointed but it happens.
The flight attendants were very helpful, efficient and courteous in helping everyone!
The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food was great. Lots of movies to choose from as well as tv shows. Highly recommend.
Better. I took an aisle seat this time. Although the overheard compartment above the seat ahead of me kept opening up during flight.
I have a Peanut Allergy and the Steward staff were very accommodating in ensuring my safety as my allergy is life threatening. Very professional and so vested in their profession.
My seat was sold off to someone else. Had to wait 9 hours to catch the next filght. Definitely will never use Cathay Pacific again. Bad, very bad airline. will comment on google reviews too.
Weren’t even given earphones to use the entertainment system
Very friendly and attentive flight attendants, good food service. Seat was comfortable. However, the in flight electronics were poor. The screen froze repeatedly; the controller died; the headphones are a hit or miss; the wifi wasn't usable. Very scarce communication before the flight (no email reminder). Almost impossible to understand in-flight communications (audio was very poor).
The meals were not the greatest and lacking of appetite but everything else was spot on
Overall, excellent: check-in, boarding, service, and food. The Business Class seating is a little less private and spacious than the world's premier airlines, but still very good for a long haul flight.
On time. Friendly and helpful flight attendants. The plane was clean. Having a wine available would have been nice.
Your staff was exceptional. Could teach the other airlines-rules on etiquette, and service. Excellent landings on flights, carried out by your pilots. Only complaint is long delay on return flight in Beijing, onto Vancouver.
Worst than I expected, crew was not attentive, meal was as disgusting , they didn’t even drink selections as they would to other passengers. I felt discriminated
I hate that you cannot check in online and when you are at the airport, there aren't any aisle seats left. Also, they could work a little on subtitles for their movies (not everyone is a native English speaker).
Nothing to complain of, the only reason I am not giving better marks is that I am used to flying with ANA and they are the top.
Communication between the captain/crew and the passengers needs to be improved.
The real problem is that the WIFI for a westerner is terrible. To not be able to properly use Instagram, Whatssap on such a long flight makes the flight miserable. The flight attendants are all like busy bees, efficient.
Crew is polite, but artificially polite. You can see and feel it. Food could be better.
Broken business class seat which could not convert into a bed and had to switch to a narrower aisle seat to sleep
Suck! Sat in plane on the tarmac (hot) over 2 hours
This was my first time ever flying China Eatern and it will not be my last. I was very satisfied with my whole experience and trip. Thank you very much and until soon.
The flight was delayed. The staff made us wait in the room that is too small and it was crowded and with no seats available for waiting. They did not tell us why the delay occurred.
While boarding at PVG, there was a ticket checking at the gate, then there was another ticket checking at the bottom of the escalator, which created quite a dangerous congestion. Not sure which idiot made this absolutely unnecessary arrangement.

Plane was good. But food was bad and air host was so rude. I will never fly with China Eastern again
The ticket was last minute buy so no concerns about the pricing this time, but the crew in general could have been more accommodating, helpful.
Plane had cargo loading issues which delayed us by an hour. Not sure when the crew found out about this but it became a real pain.
they could have remembered to put my luggage on the flight, it's frustrating and disappointing to have your bag left behind. now i get to deal with sh** tomorrow. do i have faith that AC will be on top of this? no. the flight was fine, run of the mill AC flight pay up for top notch service.
Flight crew was unremarkable. They were not friendly and had a harsh tone. Truly didn't make us want to make sure we got an air Canada flight again.
Fantastic experience. The flight left early from BGI and the service at the counter in Barbados was very friendly and efficient. The seats were very comfortable with good leg room. Looking forward to flying AC again.
The flight was packed solid which shouldn’t be a problem, but when you realize that if you are over 5’7” tall there is no room to do anything but sit uptight it changes the perspective. Especially when you are in a seat that doesn’t even recline. Those seats should warrant a discount really. It’s preposterous that you have yo pay an extra $60ish to get 10cm more leg room but have to pay the same price as everyone else when you have seemingly less leg room and can’t even put your seat back the wee bit everyone else can. Offer them at a discount on booking even. I know tons of travelling kids/young people who wouldn’t mind sitting like that for five hours if a nice discount was offered. The staff was lovely and the touchdown was stellar but the extreme close quarters is what has me pondering another means of travel whenever possible.
$4 for headphones to use the multimedia system, games that are boring.....small oat bar as a snack....Porter has better snacks and entertainment
I appreciated the fact carry on picked up at the checkinn . Service and check in super nicer.
Crew was great. The crew that came on in Montreal helped us look for a lost passport and could not have been nicer. Our only problem was boarding in Barcelona but was due to airport issue. Not enough staff to get wheelchair passengers to gates.
nothing at all. no headset for 5hrs to watch the entertainment, no snack
I did not get meals as I was asleep and nothing later
