Scores according to KAYAK customer reviews
Pros: "Food - Free dinners even for economy class. Entertainment - Every seat has a TV that offers multiple languages and tons of blockbuster movies from a variety of genres. They also offer many television shows in multiple languages and genres and video games. Roomy- The seats are as non-roomy as any airplane. However, the flight attendants don't give you any trouble when you want to just get up and walk around and talk to people. It gives the plane a roomy atmosphere. You can go to spacier sections of the plane to hang out."
Cons: "Nothing."
Pros: "Professionalism of the crew."
Cons: "My partner and I could not understand much of what flight attendants said in English due to their accent. Mediocre food. When the person in front came back, his seat leaned back and hit my laptop. I felt ignored once when a flight attendant appeared to have asked in Chinese if I need any drink."
Pros: "On time"
Pros: "The plane was about 3/4 full, so it felt like there was extra room. It was a red-eye flight, easy to sleep and quiet."
Cons: "Be prepared for some pushing and shoving by the other passengers."
Pros: "The 748 is nice and new and in premium economy the legroom stretches for miles"
Cons: "They lost our Bags! Crew did not speak english! Transferring is a pain! Food was very poor quality"
Pros: "The flight waited for all the people to come on the flight before leaving.The food was good, and they didn't disturb sleeping passengers in the middle of the flight."
Cons: "The TV screen was horrible, and half the time it didn't even work. The games said how to use the controller, but the controller that was there didn't even work. The crew needs to serve water and drinks a little more than twice in the 8 hour flight. And when the water and drinks are served,they should pour a little more than 40% in the cup. Dehydration doesn't make for a good experience especially when you have already come off a 12.5 hour connecting flight."
Pros: "Friendly service."
Pros: "Number of crew and attentiveness; meal service on a short flight and efficiency in delivery"
Cons: "Mass boarding rather than by section"
Pros: "On time"
Cons: "The food was ok for an airplane."
Pros: "In general the flight was fine."
Cons: "When I made my reservation the time to make my connecting flight in Beijing to Dulles (IAD) was 2 hr. Air China shortened the delay to 1 hr. We arrived on time but did not get off the plane until 12:00. They began boarding our connecting flight at 12:15. My husband needed the use of a wheelchair and with the help of the airport staff member we RAN through immigration (flew in from Hong Kong), had to go through security a second time, lost my iPad at security due to our rapid departure. We got to the flight at 12:30 and made it just in time to board. Our luggage could not be transferred in time and arrived the next day. This is just too difficult for people of any age to do...my husband and I are both in our 70s."
Cons: "We were so delayed—gate number didn’t show up until after we were to take off—missed connecting flight to HNL. They cited ‘weather’ for our missed connection but had never said anything about this in Hong Kong when we were waiting hours for our plane to arrive. We were told to get temporary visas so they could put us in a hotel that night. We found our way to the meeting place only to be told there were no more rooms. The worker was completely rude and just ignored us. We were stranded all night on the departure side, waiting to check in in the morning to a flight we weren’t even sure we were rerouted on. We were given 200 yen (which is nothing) and had to go thru Tokyo, and wait another half day to catch a connection to HNL. The whole trip took 36 hours instead of 16. I’ll never fly this airline again. Something similar happened to me flying China Eastern. Honestly avoid all Chinese airlines, unless you want to spend a lot of time arguing with people and at least 2-3 times the travel time. (Not to be confused with Taiwanese airlines like China Airlines which are much more dependable and hace way nicer everything.)"
Cons: "Crew's English needs improvement."
Pros: "Practically nothing"
Cons: "Terrible, tasteless food; couldn't understand English announcements, A/V surveillance in aircraft."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Really Bad Aeevice"
Pros: "A bit of the food"
Cons: "No valid explanation for the 2 hours delayed of the flight from montreal and upon arrival in Beijging there is a lot of miscommunication about what passengers have to do. Everybody does'nt know what to do. No one can exactly give us the way and right thing to do. No anwers to our questions. We were hungry and no way of getting in touch with our family members because airport wifi does'nt work for us. We were ask to go here and there without explanation and the hotel given does'nt deserve to.be even a 1star..a better than nothing hotel. Tired, hungry and very exhausted . No words can describe our frustrations. We deserve a refund if not at least a compensation for that very bad service experienced on that flight of Air China 880."
Pros: "Very easy flight and check in. I had no luggage so that made it even easier."
Pros: "Good leg room and airline food quality was good and great movie choices."

Cons: "They didn't let me on to the plane"
Pros: "Perfect service. New equipment. On time. Business class feels like First Class. Attendants are punctilious and extraordinarily well trained. Seem to enjoy their work. Almost zero slip ups."

Pros: "Good entertainment system on plane"
Cons: "Lost my bags in transfer. Told me it was due to short transfer time, but I was in transfer over 4 hours. Others taking same route got bags. Despite the fact that there must be at least 5 flights a day between Beijing and Shanghai, they told me it would take about 48 hours to get my bag. By this point I will be gone from Shanghai....baggage service thought it was funny and told me not to transfer in Beijing next time."
Cons: "The food doesn’t taste good"
Pros: "A completely packed plane on a 14 hour flight from Beijing to NYC, freezing cold. I was too exhausted to eat my second meal. The flight attendants were great, but i"ll avoid flying Air China in the future."
Pros: "Overall my experience with China Airlines was excellent. The food was good, staff provided exceptional customer service, and all time requirements were on schedule."

Cons: "Same as above, and the entertainment is also limited for western customers."
Pros: "Good leg room. (I'm 6'2") Nice and courteous flight attendant's. Good cabin service. Overall Air China was much more orderly and sane than China Eastern. I would use Air China again."

Cons: "Very cramped! No entertainment, too warm in cabin."
Pros: "free local beer"
Cons: "worn out seats, the children playing games on the monitor in the back of my seat so i had to deal with back of my chair constantly moving. clearly frozen to microwave meal. Late departure on both of my flights with them but shockingly, on time arrival for both."
Pros: "The flight and service itself was good and quick for a short timed flight"
Cons: "Just my luggage being lost at my final destination is a big let down since all my vacation was in that suitcase"

Cons: "Entertainment very limited for non Chinese"
Cons: "AIR CHINA--Very UNETHICAL Airline--SAID I COULDN'T FLY UNLESS I PAID AN EXTRA $200 EVEN THOUGH I HAD PAID-IN-FULL FOR MY AIRFARE WEEKS EARLIER. HIGHLY UNETHICAL AIRLINE. REPRESENTATIVE PROMISED TO CALL ME BACK IN ORDER TO GET MY $200 REFUNDED AND THEY NEVER CALLED BACK. THE WORST AIRLINE EVER. AVOID AIR CHINA AT ALL COSTS."
Pros: "Food was okay"
Cons: "Seats are uncomfortable, the entertainment screen is very laggy and unresponsive. The options were VERY poor and very few."
Cons: "Boarding and deplaning from the tarmac vs a jetway"
Pros: "Friendly crew. Had good seats"
Cons: "T.v. didn't work."
Pros: "That this airline delivered me safely to all points."
Cons: "Robotic flight attendants: they acted like robots and never as humans. Smiling is not what their operational programs have missed. They are RUDE people. People should try not to even change planes in China. Koreans and Japanese people are much far adorable than any one Chinese I encountered. They have to step up. For now, never again on any Chinese airlines. Taiwanese airlines provide much better service."
Pros: "polite, quick check-in, nice on-board service"
Cons: "Poor customer service and flight delays"
Pros: "I was extremely pleased with the flight attendants. They were excellent at all times. Very professional and friendly. I was particularly surprised at their approach to any passenger who could potentially cause problems for the flight or other passengers. I'm American and to be frank, we are total jerks in flight. You tell an American to put away their mobile device and as soon as you turn your back they're back at it. Americans in general are unreasonable people. The flight attendants' approach to solving problems before they have an opportuniy to become problems was a sight to see, friendly, non-confrontational. They brought beverages around at regular intervals which was very comforting. Also, not only were blankets and pillows at every seat before takeoff, but they were fairly decent. Very comfortable. On a US carrier you can expect to be charged extra for any little thing, and so you don't even bother to ask for it. On Air China you don't have to worry about it."
Cons: "On this flight, nothing. No complaints whatsoever."
Pros: "Good staff."
Cons: "Seats are tight if two large people are sitting next to each other. HAd to wait a long time to check in. Function of airport though."
Pros: "Flight and Crew were good but entertainment wan't as they had old selections in Entertainment."
