China Airlines is great - it’s got a good price point, quite a lot of routes and the crew are extremely polite and professional . The cabins are also fresh and modern

We have flown the Vancouver to Taipei, Taipei to Denpasar route several times with different airlines, In my opinion the China Air business class experience is one of my favourites.

Nice video! I will also be going to Taipei next week. I was originally going to fly China Airlines round trip, but I found amazing award availability from Delta for MSP-ICN. Delta One business class for only 89k miles! Really excited to fly business class for the first time. Convenient too since I am based in MSP. Then for my return flight it will be China Airlines Premium Economy TPE-SFO. Seems like a great airline so I’m sure even premium economy will be a nice experience.

I remember flying a year ago on CAL business class and find the Korean Air lounge stinks. Very measly selection and portions of food choices. Perturbed why CAL doesn't have its own lounge considering they've been a major airline at LAX for decades. Otherwise great vid and it's nice to see China Airlines has maintained its high business class standards. If you ever come across the Tung Po Pork 東坡肉 selection on CAL, go with that cuz it was HEAVENLY! Beats any meal I've had in the sky

Great video. Thank you! No pajamas on CI, huh? They don't weigh the carry-on for Business class though, do they? What about your connecting flight from TPE to ICN, do they weigh carry-ons in economy there? If they do, I'll have to plan my packing better as we fly carry-on only.
@nathanielnguyen8595 10 ай бұрын
Hey Max, I flew premium economy with Singapore airline last summer, and I had the same problem with my carry on as urs. First, it is surprising to me that they were so strict about carry on weight that never happen to me before at US airports. Iam not sure if it happens to other airlines as well besides Singapore airline and China Airlines.

Great video man, If I was to nitpick on something, I'd say your audio levels are mismatched or needs to be equalized appropriately. When the music came on, I had to lower my volume and when u were speaking, I had to turn it up a lot. Just for your future videos! The quality of the video and everything else was awesome !

Thank you for sharing your amazing experience. The cabin, service and food looks amazing, but if I paid for a premium cabin seat and had that lounge experience, I'd be really PO'd. LAX has to be one of my least favourite airports for many reasons, the lounge and boarding experience is by far the most contentious.

I flew Business on EVA and thought their food was better than China Airlines.The seat and bedding were similar. The cabin on China Airlines looks nicer. I wonder if you've flown both and care to compare.
@marklihsu 10 ай бұрын
Eva weighs the carry ons even for business. When my dad flew them I would always hold on to his carry on while he checked in. I flew CI this past April because BR availability was not there. Got lucky and found saver awards via AF RT. It was above avg way better than Y but prefer BR J when available. The Star gold lounge at tbit is way better than the KE lounge. The centurion lounge was closed at 10pm!?!?

Ah yes the Star Alliance lounge is much better. I haven't flown BR yet to compare but hope to one of these days. Thanks for sharing!

I contacted air France and they told me to contact china airlines, however the website is not recognizing my ticket number provided by air france. Any advice on what to do next?
@MaxMilesPoints 9 ай бұрын
Ok this is interesting , because when I booked earlier this year I had no issues selecting my seat. But as of the last couple months you can’t select your seat so the best way is to go to the My Bookings page on Czech Airlines and select your seat there.

TAP Air Portugal will weigh your carry on while you are in line to board. So you can't check the bag or shift weight to a checked bag. It felt like a scam for them to collect 60 euro overweight fees.
