best airline to fly to china (hong kong- doesnt need to be cheap)
Im getting flights paid for up to about £900 to fly to hong kong this summer- anyone had experience of flights to china? what do you recommend/ not?
I flew with American Airlines to New York last summer and hated the experience- I hear British Airways is good
I want good service, minimal possibility of delays, good baggage allowance... general comfort
thanks for your help! -
Re: best airline to fly to china (hong kong- doesnt need to be cheap)
Singapore airline is the best, and i think it's the most expensive
u can try hk dragon air.
i've had expenrience with cathay pacific, i tried to cancel my flight and called them, and i think it's about 30 minutes after the waiting, not helpful at all. plus, they never replied my email. and now, after 1 year, i still havent get my refund/ -

I've actually always flown Virgin to Shanghai and it's always been pretty good, great selection of in flight entertainment as well. The food on Singapore Airlines is amazing though. Been on Emirates as well, but you'll probably have to do a Dubai stopoff.

Cathay Pacific. Five star-rated by Skytrax (Emirates and BA are four, American is three) and because it's the HK flag carrier they'll fly you there non-stop. -
Re: best airline to fly to china (hong kong- doesnt need to be cheap)Definitely not. Not sure how you can have non reclining seats on a 12 hour flight...(Original post by hennessybubbles)

There's no point going on Singapore Airlines unless you want to go massively back on yourself, having a 4 hour flight.Last edited by rockrunride; 30-03-2012 at 14:01. -

Re: best airline to fly to china (hong kong- doesnt need to be cheap)Do all Emirates A380 from LHR-HKG via DXB and BKK.
You cn get a return ticket for that route for around £550 with Emirates.
