Is Air China Economy Actually That Bad? Long Haul - A350 Review

Is Air China actually any good? We flew Air China’s Airbus A350 Economy from London Gatwick to Hanoi via Shanghai to find out whether a £380 return ticket is an incredible bargain… or one to avoid. In this honest, unsponsored review, we cover the complete Air China economy experience on flight CA848, including: ✈️ Check-in at Gatwick 🍺 Food & drinks onboard 💺 Seat comfort for a 12-hour flight 🎬 In-flight entertainment 🚽 Toilets & cleanliness 🥪 Mid-flight snacks 🇨🇳 Transit through Shanghai Pudong (PVG) 🥣 The infamous “local breakfast” congee… Spoiler: we made one very questionable breakfast decision that you’ll probably want to avoid. If you’re travelling to Vietnam, China, Thailand or Southeast Asia, and Air China is one of the cheapest options, this video shows exactly what you can expect before you book. Would we fly Air China again? Watch to the end for our honest verdict.
