Very bad service and food variety will never come back again

My baby was with me it was really good experience with emirates

Fantastic as ever. Great staff super catering and excellent service.

Flight and entertainment great. Food needs to be improved, only one choice on the menu. Staff worked well throughout.

Premium economy was worth it-comfort was definitely better than economy class. The seats were more comfortable, blankets and pillows thicker

Crew were excellent and the bar service and chat fantastic. Cheese board delicious. Amenity kit good, very disappointing not getting pyjamas on this leg of the flight and needed to reuse from earlier flight.

Everything was superb, only bad point was that the fast track on London Heathrow arrivals was not handed out to me and I had to go back to the gate to collect it.

Superb experience. I hope they bring back the fast track option at Heathrow immigration.

I liked theAVML food. Taste was alright and quantity was enough. Sometimes during the flight I felt that the smell from toilet was coming to the cabin

You can improve in many ways First the crew in general is good, but needs to work with passion to their works not like robots Second, collecting the ear headphones long time before landing is strange The crew should deal with the passengers with respect and descent way not like giving orders

did not get a notification about seat selection ahead of time. We didn't end up sitting together.

China Southern was not the problem. I booked my flight through Kayak and also received a booking reference and alert details regarding departure time and gate numbers… however Kayak NEVER actually booked my flight! We were stranded at the airport without a flight for a long awaited holiday!

Terrible boarding experience,,food is very poor that I I . Never going book this airline again.

It was okay. Boarding the staff made you feel rushed like we were late or something

Crew: Everybody was polite. People just need to get efficient and less reworking things. Entertainment: Could have move movies and games. The “music” section is a joke, only ONE available. Food: The food provided on the flights boarding in china needs a serious reworking. Too much oil, bad for your stomach, tastes too artificial and the eggs were a giant mass of green dough.

We bought an upgrade to Business Class at the airport but did not realise that it was not the regular Business Class. The 787 Dreamliner was very dated with the seats not as comfortable as other airlines and some things were almost coming off. We were then told that because it was an upgrade at the airport, we get to sit in the BC cabin but will be served economy class food. So when everyone else got served in china ware, we were given the tray you got in economy class. The wifi does not work. It only connects to watch movies (which is the same as what you find in the ICE) but the internet does not work. The cabin crew while were friendly, were not responsive. Overall, I will never fly China Southern again.

Flight canceled, but they didn't notify me. They arranged a nearby hotel and 4 meals for me to stay for 24 hours before I could board.

We bought the business class tickets. The check-in staff and onboard crew were excellent, providing commendable service throughout. However, it was disappointing to find that China Southern Airlines does not have a lounge at SFO. Instead, passengers were provided with a $35 per person food voucher, which fell short of expectations. Furthermore, the quality of the onboard food left much to be desired, marking a significant decline compared to our previous flight experience in 2019, prior to the pandemic.

No red vine, no whiskey, no vodka. No that I wanted all of them at once but still...

Quality flight from start to finish. Customer service is evidently very important to this company. The staff really exceeded expectations.

While boarding at PVG, there was a ticket checking by the gate, then there was another ticket checking right at the bottom of the escalator, which created quite a dangerous congestion. Don't understand why the duplication?

I was traveling alone with an infant, so the crew was incredibly helpful. Both the international and subsequent domestic flights were impeccable.

Super surprised with the entire experience. Business class is incredible. Flight attendants around the world could learn customer service from these people. Simply fabulous experience all the way around.

China eastern was fantastic. I had read so many bad reviews that had made me nervous. However, I found that the flight attendant’s, and customer service check in etc. etc. was excellent. I had no problems. I would fly with them again!

Excellent experience however older aeroplanes used by China Eastern Airlines.

The temperature of the plane cabin is too hot. Sweat and uncomfortable. Also my food tray was broken down drinks fall off

Flight was delayed for more than 3 hours, food was mediocre, seat didn’t recline

I think it’s time that somebody set a standard for the temperature in the cabins. I would rather it be colder than anybody that wants to have a blanket have a blanket to keep it so warm at times is unbearable and quite uncomfortable. That’s the only thing I would add.

Good airline for the price. The Air stewardess are great, nothing is to much trouble. Will use again.

Couldn’t fly since they wouldn’t issue a boarding ticket. Something to do with not taking the departing flight since it was cancelled due to weather. No notice or anything about the trip being invalid. The app made it seem like I was all good for it. Never trusting travel agency

Comfort in premium economy is worth it for long hauls especially on the 787-9P Dreamliner with the modern updates. The food was okay. All 4 of us selected the same meal, 2 of us had very dry hard to cut chicken, the other 2 were tender and good. The sides/salad/dessert all very good as far as airline food goes. Crew were very attentive. Will be hard to ever go back to regular economy!

The flight attendants were efficient and helpful. The airplane had malfunctioning equipment. Again, as was the case with my previous British Air flights, the USB port did not work. This may seem like a small detail, but in this day and age, it is important to be able to have charged electronics in order to enjoy such a long flight. Please upgrade your cabins!

Crew was great! Food sub-bar, tepid & flavorless. No snack options on trans-atlantic flight. Premium Economy seats ok, leg rest wouldn’t stay in place.

Entertainment system did not function. USB ports did not function. Wi-Fi did not function. Terrible trifecta…

It was very good. The flight was delayed and people that were boarded needed to get off again but overall it was very good.

I will NEVER fly into our out of Charlotte NC again!! My arriving flight there was delayed over 25 minutes sitting on the ground waiting for a plan to leave our gate. This caused me to miss my connecting flight to Chattanooga. When I did get on my connecting flight there was yes another ground crew issue resulting in a 30 minute delay in leaving the airport. Not to mention just 3 people checking passports for incoming flights.. That airport is not worthy of being an international airport and show the US in a VERY poor way.

Flying since the 1970's and this flight had the most enjoyable food not the take it of leave it chicken or pasta selection. A380 superb

One checkin and gate attendant was very nice. Another was just making everyone check their bags and slowing down the boarding too. This was an A310 so good over bin space. Seats kind of weird, cushion sticking up in the back pushing forward

The food on my AA flights was horrible, it wasn't filling either. Additionally, my bag was delayed and was damaged when delivered. However, the airline made it impossible for me to file a complaint. Had a stressful travel as multiple flights were delayed, causing unnecessary stress due to fear of missing connecting flights. Awful experience. Experience with British Airways was better than American.

I wouldn’t like to have been told what gate I would connect at ahead of time. It was rather stressful, considering the fact that I only had an hour turnaround time between flights

Better service to offer drinks in the middle of the trip

They can improve Everything, a 12 hour flight has just 2 meals and the meals are 7 hours apart, wtf are they thinking. At the very least they should have 2 refreshments like some small snacks with some water or some other refreshments since there are people travelling with medical conditions. The services and seats were genuinely horrible

As I remember my last BA flight - mediocre at best. Uncomfortable with poor and minimal food and drinks. Screen broke shortly into flight so didn’t have access to entertainment either.

They gave away my business class seat. No explanation and no apology. Told me I had to take the downgrade if I wanted to get to India. Then no WiFi for 10 hours. Just ridiculous. We should not work with this company at Deloitte. They don’t know how to run a business.

The British airways from Dallas to London is not great , the food is not good at all but BA from London to Delhi is amazing food is great.

It made me feel safe that the crew diligently check our seatbelts. One crew member was so very patient with a passenger in explaining to him why his daughter’s car seat had to be buckled in a certain way. This passenger and his wife were quite argumentative and she maintained her composure brilliantly.

Missing 3 out of 10 checked in bags.Transfers in London and Chicago are chaotic.

Although we paid for pre-assigned seat assignments to sit together, on our flight from LHR to BOS our seats were reassigned at boarding with my 10 year old daughter seated apart from us in an exit row. We were assigned the last boarding group with little overhead space left when boarding. As a result my carryon was at my feet the entire flight making it very cramped.

Work being done at DIA made it difficult to find BA desk.

Food and crew were consistent with a high-end airline. App is on the level of what you’d see for a small regional carrier. I was charged $600 in fees that the gate agent in London assured me I wouldn’t have to pay, additionally, the app charged an upgraded seat choice and then put me in a less expensive seat. No response to emails to BA asking for help with refund. Probably won’t use BA again if I don’t get a response. In the air, BA is a world class airline. On the ground, they seem to operate on the level of a discount airline like Spirit.
