SHANDONG AIRLINES customer review :  12 February 2010 by Giorgio Rosa   (Italy)

Quintao to Whuan on time. Reasonable legroom. Cabin clean and crew attentive and polite. Good spoken English but announcement barely comprensible. I would rate this airline as slightly better than Chinese average.

SHANDONG AIRLINES customer review :  24 December 2008 : by P Smith

PEK-TNA return. First time flying Shandong (codeshare with Air China). I found it an efficient airline offering good value for the money. Plane was a new 737-800, cabin was clean, seat pitch was OK (34 inches or so), flight attendants were polite and attentive and the flights left and arrived on time. Shandong's onboard service is fairly basic (bottle of water and foil wrapped sandwich), but not out of the ordinary for a one hour flight.

Jinan to Shanghai. I am 6'4" tall, was stuck in center seat. No legroom, jammed against fellow passengers on either side. Plane packed, no other seating alternatives. A very miserable flight; flight crew oblivious to the problem or had no solutions to it.

Qingdao to Shenzhen with Shandong airlines. Flight 90 minutes lates leaving - aircraft turned up at the gate just after scheduled departure time - after boarding spent another 40 minutes on board with doors closed. Flight didn't appear on departure board at TAO at all and no explanation given either in the airport or on board as to delay. Service onboard was OK - hot meal of fried noodles. Aircraft looked in reasonable condition (737-800). FAs reasonably attentive and minimal but acceptable English spoken.

Hangzhou to Shenzhen with this airline. The aircraft was B737-300, which looked quite aging and also the seats beside me were quite broken. The pitch, however, is excellent which is at least 34 inch. Another thing that surprised me that we were served hot meal lunch with two choice food as well which were so great in taste and quantity too. Even China Southern that I flew a week earlier only offered snacks during the flight. I think Shandong Airlines is a good choice to fly within China.

Hangzhou - Guilin in First Class. Boarding and departure punctual. Aircraft was a new B737, staff extremely friend and good command in English. Catering for the 2hour flight in first class was a bit surprising, yet still good. Big pack of good biscuits, fresh cherry tomatoes and a bag of preserved chestnuts. Seats are first class seats 2x2 and good legroom. It's worth the little extra price.

Jinan via Nanjing to Fuzhou. Nice on schedule flight with good and friendly service. Although economy and third last row in a complete booked 737-300 nothing to complain.

Hangzhou - Guilin, service was fine, and the 737-300 was in good condition. However, the seat pitch is horrible, cannot be anymore than 29 inches, avoid this flight if you are over 5'6 in height.
