    Thanks for posting this. Just booked LAX-SEA-PEK for later this year and we'll be on the A330-300 in Business Class. Excited to be on this airline and super excited to be going to PEK!

      @@qf2994 Which part? We flew Alaska first class, which was great from LAX to SEA. Hainan from SEA to PEK and the service was terrific then, this was 5 years ago now.

    Hainan is wayyyyy better than Air China and China Eastern...

      Air China gives 46kg of baggage in Economy and are cheap. Their meal service is fine and crew diligent. They have really improved. I think the other Chinese airlines are much the same.

    SilverKris in T3 at SIN. There's that warm, fuzzy, familiar feeling whenever I step in there, be it for long-haul or short-haul trips. Food there has always been great too! I tend to find a good balance of western and Singaporean dishes on the buffet line (:

    I want you to try and give review about Japanese Airline like JAL or ANA.
    for example, if you fly JAL from Beijing to LA, you can experience B767 and B777.

    Hi Josh, how are you? There are two new routes from Dublin, Ireland which have opened this Summer 2018. Dublin to Hong Kong with Cathay Pacific and Dublin to Beijing with Hainan Airlines. These commenced only a few weeks ago, and are the first time both airlines have flights to Dublin, and these are the first direct flights connecting China with Ireland. You might try them and review. Thanks.

    Impressive to see Western cabin crew on-board. Are these on all their flights or just European? Also, I thought Hainan Airlines brought out a new stylish uniforms (?).
    Nice video mate, well done!

      As a western Cabin crew of Hainan Airlines, I can answer your question. The foreign Cabin crew working for Hainan Airlines are mostly working on international flights (and partially on domestics) and in Business class.
      About the new uniform, it will be released when we will pass to the summer Season and summer uniform. It is actually used for inaugural flights during this time :)
      I hope that I could answer your questions. Have a nice day !

  • @JimBeary
    @JimBeary 6 років тому +2

    I enjoy your commentary! 2 suggestions: 1. Please don't fast forward through take off & landings. (I know this one was a night flight, though!) The view out the window is how viewers get a good sense of the different airports and locations. Otherwise, airports and airplane interiors and skies at cruising altitudes all look nearly the same. 2. Please travel to some smaller, unusual destinations. It seems like every aviation geek flies the same airlines to the same hubs. Set yourself apart by flying to cities that haven't been visited. That's my 2 cents worth!

    My favorite lounges to date are: Cathay Pacific Wing F and Pier F in Hong Kong. They are tied because the offer different things. Cathay Pacific F lounge at Heathrow's terminal 3, then BA's CCR and Galleries First lounge in terminal 5. I look forward to trying the Qantas F soon.

    • @goSANFRAN
      @goSANFRAN 6 років тому

      They fly 787 series Beijing to Manchester and Moscow seasonly. For full year service, 788 Chongqing to Rome, 789 from Shanghai to Brussels (to Tel Aviv as well if you count it an European city). Starting April this year, Hainan will fly to BRU from Shenzhen, the city next to Hongkong, using their 788/9 twice weekly. Hope the info help :)
