sheridan318 Posted September 22, 2015 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2015 hi sorry for this question being a bit off topic but has anyone flew with this airline? I have seen a few reviews and the main complaint seems to be that the time lines are not kept. Its the only airline I could afford to fly to the uk in business class as I have a back problem I thought this might be an option what do others think Jacquie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiserBruce Posted September 23, 2015 #3 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) If you ask on the Cruise Air board, you will reach a large number of experienced and expert flyers. Edited September 23, 2015 by CruiserBruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushka Posted September 23, 2015 #5 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) My partner has flown on China Southern. He still keeps talking about it. It will be an experience. :o Edited September 23, 2015 by Pushka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheridan318 Posted September 23, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted September 23, 2015 oh no what was the problem:confused: I haven't booked yet so any input is appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushka Posted September 23, 2015 #7 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) Well, it seemed very crowded with people standing most of the trip. Seat belt signs ignored. People arguing. Talking loudly. The flight itself was safe. Just surrounded by humanity. It will be ok, just dont expect Qantas/Virgin experience.

travaustralia Posted September 23, 2015 #8 Share Posted September 23, 2015 We travelled business class, Los Angeles back to Perth on China Southern. All aspects were excellent. They provided us with free 16 hour stopover enroute, at the Pullman hotel. I would have no fears using them again. We are using Garuda Airlines to London in January. I was also looking for a cheaper option one way business class, and this was the best. Guess we'll see how it pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrogers Posted September 23, 2015 #9 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Have a look at Garuda or Royal Brunei they would be my preference over China Southern. Not sure of the costing in Business, but these 2 would be the preferred option, if pricing is comparable...cheers V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushka Posted September 23, 2015 #10 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) Yes. My partner travelled economy. It was a regional flight. I think that will make a difference. Edited September 23, 2015 by Pushka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3littlepigs Posted October 5, 2015 #12 Share Posted October 5, 2015 We flew China Southern Premium Economy from Xian to Shanghai earlier this year. It was fine although not the premium economy we are used to, really just another small economy class cabin in front of a curtain. The only problem we found was the planes flying through China are pretty much ALWAYS late...China Southern is one of the better Chinese Airlines. We've flown China Eastern before and I would NEVER set foot on one of their planes again, the passengers took control of the cabin and the staff just let them, it was quite frightening, and that was a flight from Sydney to Shanghai this time last year.
