LHR-PER May 2013. Booked CZ as they were GBP 200 cheaper than other airlines. Was worried after some of the reviews I read but the experience was good overall. All flights arrived on time. New airbus A330-200 on all legs. AVOD system pretty good enough to keep me entertained without getting out my iPad. Food was standard airline meals - in economy its never going to be amazing but was sufficient. Seats comfortable enough. Crew sometimes slow to respond to attention calls but plenty of self serve drinks at rear of plane. Transit at CAN is not the headache some reviewers make it out to be. Plenty of CZ ground staff there to help. Overnight stop in Guangzhou on return CZ provide accommodation for transit over 8 hours. Good 4 star hotel with buffet breakfast. For the price I'd definitely use them again only complaints are drinking water on board aircraft was always warm and some announcements were hard to understand.

My wife and I recently flew with China Southern from London to Auckland NZ. We chose CS because of their very competitive price and were delighted. Modern well equipped planes polite professional staff and decent food. The icing on our cake was our 7 hour interconnection at Guangzhou when we were offered use of the Business Class lounge with comfy chairs warm showers excellent food and quality (Chinese) wine - all for free! We've flown LHR to AUK many times and this was easily our best experience. We shall most certainly fly China Southern again.

Travelled recently Auckland-Guangzhou-London return. While this trip was very competitively priced and we were quite happy with the level of seat/bed comfort we were disappointed with the English language skills of the cabin crew who were very willing to be of service but often simply couldn't understand us. The meals were interesting and generous in quantity but there was virtually no choice of alcohol with our dinner and it wasn't offered until we asked. There also seemed to be no comprehension of a simple western breakfast: muesli yoghurt fruit and a hot cup of tea or coffee. But our biggest complaint was that on the leg from Guangzhou to Auckland the business class cabin was full of men who coughed burped snored sniffed and hoiked into their napkins to the extent that even with ear plugs firmly in place we could not sleep. Dreadful.

Hanoi-Amsterdam via CAN in biz class. Though booked in business class first part of flight was seated in economy comfort/plus as first 2 rows were First Class. Lounge in Hanoi old fashioned style but friendly staff and enough variety in food/drinks and free wifi. Upon arrival in CAN greeted by ground staff and taken to lounge as we had a long layover. Lounge itself in CAN is great and offers showers/buffet restaurant/loungers/sleeping accommodation. Onboard A332 with 4 classes service was good and a full dinner and breakfast service was offered on this 13hrs flight. Seat was full flat/180c. There was also a dutch native flight attendant around. On the negative side selection of wine was really bad and welcome drinks consisted of orange juice/apple juice and water. Did not see any Champagne at all neither in lounge or onboard. Menu was offered upon embarking but after taking dinner and breakfast order taken away again.It did not mention drinks either. this seems strange. Comfort kit nice and had a good sleep. IFE very limited. All in all if you see a good deal then for sure you have value for money. FB miles received within 2 weeks.

Shanghai Hongqiao-Guangzhou return with fairly new A330-300 touch-screen AVOD is excellent! Lots of the latest movies even for a 1hr 45 minutes domestic flight. 1hr delay for both ways due to aircraft late arrival. Cabin crew quite young and unprofessional but polite anyway. Food awful and tasteless.

Xian to Chengdu 11 May. Nice modern 737. There was a delay of over 30 minutes. They served some water and a small sandwich while we waited. Once the aircraft departed there was no service at all. Most of the staff stayed seated until the plane was due to land. There was no food or drink served. Not even water. Not really good enough for a 4 star airline.

Taipei To Guilin 1 May. The service was quite good as was the meal although it was quite small. There was no IFE which was a pity for an international flight of nearly 2 hours. The 737 was new and well maintained.

Flew CZ325 from Guangzhou back to Sydney on 9th May 2013. The whole crew were friendly I seated in 37K. One of the passengers in front of me had a heart problem and crew reported to the purser the purser seemed experienced broadcast for a doctor on board and stayed with this passenger. He was very professional. Food is ok but not brilliant inflight entertainment could be better. I am an elite plus member with skyteam and a frequent flyer. Would fly again.

Domestic flight in China from Harbin to Beijing. Booked the ticket at noon on the day of departure. I still got 20% off the price. The service was ok the dinner was awful as usual. Chicken rice and beef noodle. Airbus A320 is kind of new but it has no individual entertainment system just a few common used televisions over our heads. Barely nobody watch that. The whole flight was average.

Round trip Melbourne - Guangzhou - Melbourne. Leg room is good. However service is bad. The airplane equipped with some big screen TV (not individual LCD like other airlines) with no sound and you have no choice but to watch their chosen programs. However on my trips the TV was not working. When we complained to stewardess she acknowledged the problem but did nothing to fix it. Not even an apology. No music channels provided. On the food front if you are Asian then you will get either rice or noodle automatically (unless you complain and request Western food). It also the only airline serves beverages that are not chilled. Even beer is warm. I don't think I'll fly with them again.
