"legroom is rather minimal"
1 reviews P Salera (Australia)
✅ Trip Verified | The A330-300 seat layout in both economy cabins seems very congested and overcrowded. The economy seats though well upholstered, does not offer much comfort for long sitting down. The head rest is and tilt angle is OK. The legroom is rather minimal and not so comfortable for tall persons. Getting in and out of economy seats not so comfortable

"seat was the most uncomfortable"
Chris Rodliffe (New Zealand)
✅ Verified Review | I flew overnight from Auckland to Guangzhou on a China Southern Boeing 787 - 11 hours of agony. The seat was the most uncomfortable I have ever experienced. It was firm and unyielding, like sitting on sand, with no springiness in it. As a result I had to try to shift my position every then minutes to try and ease my aching muscles, but to no avail. I got no sleep. Probably the rest of the flight was up to standard, but I remember little except the discomfort. The only other thing I do remember is the window 'shades' were electronic and I think the crew overrode them so I had no view out in the dawn approaching China. By contrast, the old domestic China Southern A320 I connected with had normal seats - quite comfortable and what a relief. I would fly on China Southern again - but never on a 787.

"average comfort level"
L Tu (China)
✅ Verified Review | The A330 economy class seat is average comfort level, with adjustable head support. The IFE is OK for long range trip, but few recent movies, the earphone plug is sinked inside and I cann't use it, wish maintenance guy can fix that. Most seats got the additional usb connection to charge mobile equipment, but not any at the first 4 seats at 2x4x2 config in economy class.

"Very comfortable seats"
Hyoseon Jeong (South Korea)
✅ Verified Review | I seat 62A in the Boeing 777-300 from Guangzhou to New York. Very comfortable seats without other people. However, the shortage of overhead bins in the airplane was a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, there were many passengers, but the quiet flight environment and the food and services offered were satisfied.

"ample leg room in this seat"
1 reviews T Marron (Australia)
✅ Verified Review | I was sitting in seat 31D which was at the bulkhead. There was ample leg room in this seat. The headrest was able to be set so that you could rest your head to the side with comfort. The leg rest could come up somewhat but it would have been more comfortable had the leg rest been able to raise a little further. The entertainment monitor was easy to use and was a touch screen. The tray table was also easy to assemble from out of the arm rest. The seat could retract into a good position for a more relaxing place to rest.

"deceiving the customer"
Philippa Roylance (Australia)
The inflight staff on this flight were excellent and the service was very professional. However, the same cannot be said for China Southern Administration. The route of my flight from Guangzhou to Rome was changed from a direct flight Guangzhou to Rome to an additional domestic leg within China. This meant we flew Guangzhou - Wuhan - Rome. An official notification email to opt out of this change was sent while I was in-flight from Brisbane to Guangzhou. This in effect made any decision not to take the changed flight impossible. Consequently on arrival in Guangzhou a normal transit situation between international sectors became an horrific nightmare involving moving through many levels of additional security because of the added domestic leg, my passport being taken away and then given to a Chinese person (I am not of chinese ethnicity!), and lost for a period of time, the need to try and find my passport, the loss of purchased duty free items, abuse by ground staff and so on. It was the most dreadful flying experience of my life. I believe the email sent during the first leg of the flight an incredibly cynical exercise in China Southern Airlines deceiving the customer and a disgusting attempt to lie to passengers about flight changes. I have flown satisfactorily with China Southern in the past, but unless some remediation occurs between the airline and me as a paying consumer I will never fly with them again. Consumer beware! Customer beware! The in-flight staff were excellent.

"I found the leg space ok"
Sheenagh Barron (New Zealand)
The seats seemed much the same size as other economy seats but the seat felt hard and after a few hours I felt quite uncomfortable. I would recommend take a cushion or a piece of memory foam. I'm not tall so I found the leg space ok but my neighbour who was taller felt cramped. The seat recline was fine but the passenger behind complained and I was asked to raise my chair a little but the person I front of me who was fully reclined for almost the full journey was not asked to do so. The TV screen on the seat in front was a little small. The aisle space is very good, I would travel again on the Dreamliner but with a cushion instead of a neck roll.

"can recline very well"
1 reviews A Santoso (Indonesia)
✅ Verified Review | Great seat on this China Southern Airlines Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, nice leg room, and the seat can recline very well to manage to get some rest. Wide seat helps me to sleep and didn't bother the person next to me. The aisle also wide enough for people to move, since I was seating at aisle seat, so I didn't bother by people moving around. Entertainment was standard in these days, not too big, not to small, and very responsive touch screen and plenty choices of movies and music. There is no power suply, but I can charge my phone using the usb port.

"very comfortable seats"
1 reviews Peter Sands (Canada)
I sat in seat 48C (aisle) in the Boeing 777-300 from Guangzhou to Vancouver. Very comfortable seats with plenty of leg room and storage under the seat and in the very large overhead bins. The flight was full and everyone was able to fit their luggage in the overhead bins without an issue. I was not even bothered by the person in front of me reclining their seat. This was a return flight where the original flight was on the Boeing 787 and I must say the 777 is a more comfortable aircraft. Everything is just a bit bigger and the seat are definitely more comfortable on the 777. The 787 was ok as well, but not up to the comfort level of the 777

"give me enough stretch space"
Leon Ma (Australia)
The seat give me enough stretch space and the seat includes a TV screen in front. TV program is relatively old or less interesting so you might want to bring your own laptop. One thing i liked about is it has a USB charger which helps you to charge your phone.
