The staff from beginning to end we're friendly and helpful. The food and beverages were quite good (but see the comment below). I also liked their entertainment options, as we'll as their frequent attention to the airplane restrooms. Here are the reasons this is not a 5-star review: - You have to pay for WiFi on the plane unless you have some level of seat upgrade. - CP sent me a warning that the name I entered to book didn't match my passport. True, but the form for entering my name didn't allow for anything but a middle initial. This lead to a lot of chats, phone calls and stress before finding out at the ticket counter that it didn't matter. CP has modified their notice to now tell you this key bit of info. - After consuming a chicken dinner they offered (Kathmandu to Hong Kong), I developed symptoms entirely consistent with salmonella, beginning about 6 hours later. There were some odd things about the serving of this meal, too. Our row was the last one served, and we were given a tray without the entree on it. About 10 minutes later the stewardess came by and said they only had one chicken meal left. My seat mate and I decided he would have the lamb and I would take the chicken. I think I lost. I suspect that this entree was left over from an earlier flight and they were scrambling to get the last row fed. My seat mate and I were the last two to receive our entrees. I am not accusing CP of giving me a contaminated meal - just that the onset and progress of symptoms closely match those of salmonella poisoning. I opted out of the first meal on the next flight 13 hours later, but was fine after that.
Was not able to board flight because boarding pass name did not match passport name and no one caught it.
If there is any negative rating for kayak and also for Cathay Pacific or the dealer I used I would give all of them -1000000000000000 I will never ever use kayak again you scammers you rip me off with everything
Staff was very courteous. Plane was clean and quite spacious even in the last rows. Veg food could have been better.
Crew were not engaging. Only engaged if requested. Food taste was mediocre
The flight attendants were very helpful, efficient and courteous in helping everyone!
More tasty food particularly ethnic food. Staff didn’t respond to calls some of the time in premium economy.
Great. We received a meal even though it was a short flight.
The experience was very good. A little disappointed for the delays and the screen. The touch screen was annoying for being so irresponsive. Not a lot of good movie choices for me. The service is great. Food could have more choices though.
The vegan oriental option was disappointing. The regular vegan option was okay but we've had better.
It was ok, but not what it was like 20 years ago
Great food and good entertainment options for the long flight.
It seems that qantas are trying hard to regain their status as Australia's premier airline. I only flew economy but happy with the service entertainment, food, configuration everything.
I never flew with alliance. Kayak is a joke and none of the flights or times were correct. Won’t ever use kayak again
I missed my flight due to unforeseen circumstances It was, however , an excellent price !
Loved the food and beverages available, spacious economy class, excellent entertainment
Very good overall. Highly recommend for all flying to Australia
Helpful staff when I felt unwell. Qantas need to have an audio/music channel so you can listen to various music/.artists
We had bulkhead seats in a A380 in the upper deck in seats 31 D and E. Storage was very limited other than in overhead bin - which is not within reach when in seat. Yet paying same price as others in premium economy who have a lot more storage within arm’s reach. Seems very unfair.
Good check in and helpful staff. Delayed for 1 hour. Took about 45 Mins to get baggage’s at DFW . Food was average ( Hindu meal ) . Overall it was good experience
Flight was delayed for over an hour making our connecting flight impossible to make. No notification that we had been bumped to another flight. Was told my bag would stay at the airport. Got to my hotel and got notified I needed to pick it up. Come all the way back to the airport to find I didn’t need to pick it up and the app glitched. They did at least put me on the next available flight. No offer for money back or compensation for time lost due to being home a day later. No compensation for food as it was only good for anything in the airport. Not outside it. They did at least book the hotel and the gate agent was very helpful. But I did not appreciate them giving my seats away to stand by people while I was sprinting through the airport to try and make it to a flight I was late for through no fault of my own. If they did not let stand by on I would have been on my flight as they did allow two people before me on
Flight was overbooked and seats assigned to multiple passengers. Delay 1 hour to sort out.
Good but I don’t received my bags yet is been 5days still no update
Comfortable seats with good leg room. But not screens on seat backs.
I was rescheduled when I missed my flight due to border clearance issue
Air Canada has very professional , friendly and co operative crew.
No TV on the flight. The charging outlet was not working. No food, even a sandwich. The served orange was poor quality.
I liked that the staff members at the airport were helpful and very pleasant to work with. Flight crew were also a great crew who were helpful and I was happy for their help boarding. Overall a pleasant trip home.
Business class seats were quite old. Flight departure was delayed . Food service was good
Selected seats 5 months prior to date. Had email confirmation and seats were not honoured. Family did not sit together
