"seats are comfortable"

(Israel)

Verified Review | Tel Aviv to Beijing, myself and my wife are often on this route and now become frequent traveler of Hainan Airline. Economy seats are comfortable with large space. Chinese food which we like is served. We arrived home this morning December 1, on the flight from Beijing to Tel Aviv and I would like to mention the friendly and nice service of a crew member. We are now Silver+ Fortune Wing Club.

"experience was top notch"

(United States)

Verified Review | Beijing to San Jose. The cabin crew staff were super friendly and attentive. We managed to switch to the seats next to emergency exits, and the staff kept the bathrooms clean and fresh. The inflight entertainment system is probably one of the best in class, and this flight had lots of latest movies and TV shows in both Chinese and English. I ended up watching a few movies and documentaries, which made the trip feel much shorter. My only slight con from the experience was that the cabin wifi was barely usable -I imagine the speed would only be useful for things like messaging. Don't expect to browse the web or stream videos with it. Also, Hainan Airlines international flights leave from the older Beijing T2 terminal, with very few duty free shops and restaurant choices. Overall the experience was top notch.

"excellent inflight service"

(Singapore)

Verified Review | My first experience with Hainan Airlines on a domestic flight, from Beijing to Baishan via Changchun. I enjoyed this rather short experience. Refreshments are provided even for passengers on a 40 minutes flight from Changchun to Baishan. The Boeing 737 aircraft was new. The boarding music is relaxing as well. The cabin crews were very willing to serve passengers with a smile. I recommend this airline for its decent price and excellent inflight service.

"a first class experience"

(United States)

Verified Review | We flew from Boston to Beijing return with Hainan Airlines, both ways on Boeing 787's. This was nothing less than a first class experience. The most outstanding part of this flight was the food and the staff on board. The flight attendants were always there to be sure that your needs were met.

"service attentive and cheerful"

(China)

Verified Review | Beijing to Boston. The seats in economy were roomy and clean, food was edible if forgettable - a simple fried rice with some sides that were a little dry, and the service was attentive and cheerful. The IFE was limited and a bit aged but more than enough to keep me entertained for a couple hours. Even more surprising was that all announcements were made in Chinese and English, and the pilot even announced our minor delay. The price point was great, cheaper than Air China and some of the more frequently flown domestic airlines. I would fly with them again.

"5 star for space"

(Canada)

Verified Review | Beijing to Calgary. The reason I choose Hainan Airlines is the 5 star service, way better than the previous airline I chose. The cabin staff are young, good looking and super nice. The food is quite decent with different options for Western / Asian customers. Excellent inflight entertainment, the tv shows and movies are up to date. 5 star for space in business class.

"the best inflight service"

(United States)

Verified Review | I had the best inflight service I've recieved on my Hainan Airlines flight from Chicago to Beijing. I had purchased my flight 6 months prior to the actual trip. My flight was 14 hours and as it ended up, I was 4 months pregnant at the time. I voiced my concerns about comfort to the flight attendant from the beginning, just to make them aware. To my surprise, two very amazing flight attendants went above and beyond. I was able to sleep comfortably because they found me a row of seats all to myself. They ensured I was able to eat every meal. I have never received such great service and care. I'm especially thankful for these two and their efforts.
