We booked the flights using Air China’s website, and credited them to United’s MileagePlus. The only flight that would allow us to do that was an Air China flight from Tokyo to Sydney via Beijing. The Noteworthy: There was a male flight attendant who seemed to bully the female crew, would bark at them, but then take a seat in the cabin and do nothing.Īs I had mentioned in my previous installment, we were trying to get from Tokyo to Sydney the most comfortable and cheap way possible. The Bad: Lack of Wifi, poor IFE selection, cannot use cell phones on board. The Good: Lie Flat seats, decent food, affordable price tag. I wouldn’t go out of my way to book them again, but if they have another affordable fare, I would fly them again. Seats are fine, but far from industry leading. Their crews are well intentioned, but not very polished. Air China offers a reasonable product for travel between China and Australia.
