Ventajas: The movies and food

Desventajas: I was seated at the exit seats next to the wall. I feel the seat was more small there. My body hurt so much.

Issues with the check-in process.

Desventajas: - The check-in counters opened at least 30 minutes late. The agents arrived late, they seemed to be having a good time and didn't feel the need to explain the reason for the delay nor apologize for it. - On my flight to Manila from Los Angeles, I did not check in any luggage. I had a carry-on and a backpack that fit perfectly well into the overhead bins and underneath the front seat. On my flight from Manila to Los Angeles, I was not allowed to take the same set on board because the total weight exceeded 7 kg. This put me in a bind because the heaviest item I had was my small LCD monitor which was in my backpack. I had to put it into the carry-on with wheels which I had to be checked-in. I would have prepared to carry it in my backpack because it is a fragile item. When I was told to sign a document that absolves the carrier of any liability for the checked-in luggage and I refused, the China Airlines Duty Officer in Manila informed me that unless I sign the document, my luggage will not be loaded on the plane. I felt extremely frustrated by the attitude of the Duty Officer who didn't hesitate to threaten me and insisted that the rule was imposed on them by the TSA in the US. Instead of helping me work out a solution to the difficulty I was facing, he simply walked away with a dismissive attitude.

Great inflight, horrible on the ground

Ventajas: Quite comfortable, met my expectations and I rested. On board team were friendly and helpful.

Desventajas: Lounge in TPE is awful! Over crowded, noisy and a mess. I wouldn’t fly CI again just from the lounge experience.

Don’t fly economy

Ventajas: The flight was 40 minutes faster than expected

Desventajas: The economy seating in this airline are trash

Great staff, horrible economy seating

Ventajas: The staff was friendly for a very late and very long flight

Desventajas: Almost 70% of the plain was stuffed into economy seating while 60% of the economy plus was empty and much more spacious. I feel like optional upgrades should be announced when this is the case, especially for a 16 hour flight

China Air Taipei to San Francisco
