China Southern Airlines - anything to say ?

Always said I wouldn't fly with them, mostly based on trip reports about bad experiences and the time spent changing in Guangzhou. I checked reports recently and the TA reports etc are all over the place. Some passengers think CSA are great because they serve free beer. :facepalm: Isn't this the absolute minimum ? Others complain because the food is Asian. Lol, useless information.

I'm looking at this for a longhaul flight. Just wondering. Any experiences ?

Edit. Haha. This just came up on news: http://en.freshnewsasia.com/index.php/2 ... nd-airport

never used CSA but have used China eastern airlines ( stops in Shanghai), twice to fly Phuket -sfo
Great price, short layover, flights were never full
only complaint was Terrible food

Also Asiana is good and a little bit more

I read that they rank pretty well up there and above other China airlines. Sorry I can't give any specifics but I flew em and would again, quite good I thought. Food was fine. Don't recall any free beer, but generally don't drink beer. Clean and efficient as I recall, and this is an economy airline. I'd say give em a shot. China Air stuck me in Beijing for 9 hours. I DO remember that, and not liking that airport, confusing.

Avoid at all costs. I speak from experience. Guangzhou is the worst airport I've ever been in.
