Cathay has always been great. Even allowed some leniency on my baggage weight. I believe they are also on the more leg room side of airlines.
Missed our flight with Cathay due to late Westjet plane and chaotic Toronto airport. Had to clear customs get bags and re check bags in an hour. Did not make it got lost not clear signage with bag drop off. West jet only allowed 1 checked bag for this international fluid. Cathay checked my second bag for free.
Boarding on any airline is a hot mess. Load your pivilaged passengers, then back to front. Back to front.
The flight experience was good for a long flight over the pole, but it got my wife to the Far East in time.
Problems with entertainment system eventually rectified. Cabin crew attentive and polite but a bit absent minded when it came to remembering requests, salt, sugar etc.
it was a great experience as far as business class.. but I have had better meals and wine on other airlines.. that said.. the price was a great value for what I got in return.. crew made the difference.
So so, crew was overly professional and lacks human touch. Equipment is very old, especially the HKG-PVG CX366 flight. That plane along with its decor must have twenty years of history, or at least I had that impression.
There is very little in the title" Premium" in the Economy experience with Cathay, Melbourne to Hong Kong. The seats are uncomfortable and the cabin with outdated 1990's decor and trim. The food service was sloppy and the leg room providing little to no advantage over regular economy seating. Infact, the Sunday flight was not fill occupancy and I would have done better saving the significant additional costs for the PREMIUM ticket and taken advantage of the seating. If you are a regular premium economy traveler of EMIRATES expecting the same experience on CATHAY, you will be disappointed. Emirates far superior.
The flight was cancelled. I wasn't informed where to check in, how and when. It wasn't easy to get in contact with Cathay service representative, and they were not very helpful... The staff on the airport - Air Canada (I assume) were the most helpful, kind efficient, patient... Thank you for all your help and care, for your patience, for your professionalism!!!
The aircraft was slightly newer but the food was very bad. Bland and uninteresting. Nothing special at all.
Good take off and landing, but plane was old and small. Pretty normal nothing special
Qantas get you there, but expect them to always act in their interest over yours. On this flight basic stuff went to plan, but their promised in flight entertainment wasn't functional. Bit of an old and tired plane.
Poor. Flight was delayed by 50 mins. Poor quality aircraft. Aged, few parts broken. Bad plane.
Small twin prop plane. Basic flight. Food was half a chicken & pesto sandwich. As the flight departed after 12pm alcohol was available. No on board entertainment. No wifi services.
I liked the refreshments as the flight was short and the free WiFi. The seats were comfortable.
Despite having numerous passengers held up by American Airlines delays. Qantas (an AA partner) closed boarding with 0 flexibility
Boarding , crew and meals were all amazing. Couldn't wish for a better LOOONG flight from Dallas to Sydney .
From start to finish, every part of the experience was outstanding. The care and kindness shown to my 95-year-old mother was exceptional—truly 10 out of 10. From the assistance she received at Sydney Airport while boarding the plane to the help she was given when arriving at Wagga Wagga Airport, every staff member was friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. They made her feel comfortable, safe, and well looked after throughout her journey. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make my mother's trip such a wonderful experience. Your compassion and dedication are greatly appreciated.
It was ok, the additional baggage charges were a bit excessive given winter is a time for skiing. To have to pay $600 extra for skis was tantamount to robbery. Airlines should consider sporting goods as baggage. Likewise, they should consider increasing the number of bags allowed on international flights to known ski destinations.
Meal definitely May be better as well as games (not at all) Flight attendants were ok- however cannot say that very friendly I loved that there was reasonably enough place for legs and third seats near us was not occupied
Very efficient. Economy is what economy is. Wish it had been direct. Excellent setup in Newark for commuters and access to charging stations and wifi Flight could’ve had free wifi
My flight was cancelled and United Airlines could not rebook or help. My whole trip was then cancelled and I could not go to the funeral I needed to get to.
The website check in was poor. Baggage fees were in US dollars but registered in Canadian dollars. The site would not accept my credit card. Scanning the passport was the worst. Someone from United needs to try the process. I’m not a novice with tech and I have to say this was a bad experience. Everything else was great.
Prefer not to have an almost 3 hour delay with useless communication that wasn't accurate.
Boarding was smooth and efficient. The only food was some pretzels, but it was a short flight. Not much to order if you were hungry.
Seats very comfortable; service efficient and pleasant; flight was on-time; boarding organized.
Starlink is great Crew was polite Business class didn’t get a welcome drink just water and snacks were ok
Hopped on time for the flight only to get deplaned and delayed another 2.5 hours.
Flight attendants had a little attitude. Food tastes no good.
Very poor. The flight was delayed from Toronto because some forget to do there job . I got to my connecting gate in San Francisco 10 minutes before the departure.but this didn’t let me board even though the flight was still there for an other 30 minutes. The the gentleman at the unite airline desk told me that they usually wait for passengers but air Canada called and told them not to we I been rerouted to Manila instead of Hong Kong . In San Francisco they mad me check in my carryon bag . I was told the it will directly go yo ho chi minn cuyt but I was told that by the Vietnams airline desk that’s not there I’m 10 hours behind my scheduled flight and looks like I I’m going without baggage. I don’t have a chance of catching ..
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.
I didn't like that they wanted extra money to watch a movie on the other airlines it's free that I use anyway
Process of checking in , inToronto was quiet and peaceful.. Checking in, in America is very kaotic
They should improve their choice of food, we need a wide variety
No problems other than no seat back entertainment. Everyone was very pleasant
I slept most of the flt after the red eye
Signature class to Uk makes the overnight flight bearable! Duck leg dinner best food we’ve been served in the air for a long time. Well done AC!
Better this time, the pilot communicated to passengers of delay
Delays after delays only to announce we don't know how long it will take
The usb ports to charge phones laptops did not work.
