They need to take training from emirates or Singapore airlines, it’s premium in pricing but poor in standards
Although I am a lifetime Gold Premier member on another airline association, I was placed in a inside passenger seat on both legs of my journey from SFO to HKG and onward to NRT. However, i was lucky enough to have befriended two other passengers (who were related) in my row (row 62) and therefore was kept entertained with conversation for a large portion of the overnight flight from SFO to HKG. Normally, on a Star Alliance carrier, I typically can have the seat of my choice (aisle seat) and also a Premier seat (wider and longer legroom). I was a bit disappointed that no recognition of my Gold Premier status was acknowledged by Cathay Pacific on either of my flights on Sept 26-27. The food was actually very tasty unlike the typical economy class menu. Also I appreciated that the dinner drinks were served first (prior) to the main meal on the HKG to NRT portion of my flights but drinks were served AFTER the meal had been distributed (less appealing for thirsty passengers). I was happily that there appeared to have ample cabin space for most everyone's bags ---although I did have to pay more than $400 in extra baggage fees as I had brought 4 bags with me Overall, I was impressed by the diligence and professionalism of the flight crew.
This review is based on other Asian airlines I used in the past year. Food going to Malaysia was bland and unappealing. Food coming from Malaysia back to the US was much, much better - tastier. Economy seats were not as spacious as the Airbus planes. Coming back from HKG, we were on a new Boeing plane and seats were very narrow, hard and extremely uncomfortable despite the fact we sat in the exit row. No offers for water in between meals though available in the galley. No garbage pickup. Movies were limited. All in all, flying Cathay seemed like flying a budget airline. Crew was pleasant and accommodating.
If there is any negative rating for kayak and also for Cathay Pacific or the dealer I used I would give all of them -1000000000000000 I will never ever use kayak again you scammers you rip me off with everything
I didn't see any flight attendants offer coffee or green tea. There was regular drink service but after a short meal was served didn't notice that happening.
If my return flight was not so much better, I would have given an excellent review.
Great entertainment system, the seat is a bit old style needs refurbishment
Boarding at the airport was not well managed. Otherwise, had a good flight sitting in the first row (which I paid for). Crew was pretty friendly, and flight was smooth.
I was amazed at how clean Cathay Pacific planes were compared to our US domestic airlines. Everything was great all but the food service I was just okay with. Shorter flights with other airlines usually provided more meals and snacks that I have been on. Almost a 16 hour flight just two meals and no snacks with Cathay Pacific. Even ran out of what I wanted for one of them. Other than that top notch!
From BOS to HK, the crew had pushed me to choose the pasta for meal multiple times. It was a bad experience. Without this, everything was good.
Between being the only jetstar flight delayed to changing gates at the last moment and starting boarding late, jetstar dropped the ball on this one. we had to run for last train. Never again
The seats are very uncomfortable just was not a pleasant experience
my flight was cancelled an hour before departure and i have not received a refund yet.
A child behind me was kicking my seat and the cabin attendant noticed and kindly asked me if I’d like to switch to a different available seat. Really nice.
Everything was fantastic!!!! I can’t wait to fly home 😃!!!!!
You have to pay $25 to get access to smoking lounge. One coffee and small bottle of water coupon provided. Max time 2 hrs for two entries total.
Going to Dumaguette 4 times in a row I was late it's terrible
My finger has been hurt by seat, but no answer from you.
Service was good but food needs maybe it’s just me Cause I am a foodservice supervisor more menu Sampling to get better quality when packed to be reheated . Vegetables are already dark and over cooked and breaded entrees are not the best choice I guess . All airlines meal service doesn’t appeal To me.Cause this trip I’ve used 4 different airlines and nothing good in all of them food wise. Thanks
Overall it’s very acceptable I will gave an A.
They were two hours late!! Threw everything else planned off.
Uncomfortable seats for international flights. No usb charging yet they want you to use your device for entertainment. Very poor.
I am a tall person so the seat was rather small for me lucky for me it was a short flight or i would not have been able to fly long distance in a seat that size.
Free wifi or cheaper wifi rate will be better. Or upgrade your entertainment system.
You are asking me how was my flight well you ruined all my plans for Sunday you changed my flight from 10 am until 5pm and offered no compensation except a phony plastic fake apology
The seats were dirty. Food on tray table. Late on my first flight and almost an hour early on the return. My driver was unable to adjust and I had to pay for different ground transportation.
No entertainment and not expected. Cabin was very cold which brought the comfort score down
Boarding had us in a tunnel with no AC for 15 minutes. Not planned well. And you have to pay for water, get at airport
i liked that the flight crew noticed my discomfort with the small leg space (I'm 6'2") and offered the emergency row. The fight attendants were very friendly, a definite strength with Cebu Pacific. I didn't like the leg space in my original seating.
The front desk and early check in was fantastic and the flight did not have any turbulence
Cebu Pac has a habit of changing boarding gates. They do a lot of remote boarding. So just be attentive to the announcements, especially if it's near your boarding time.
The flight was delayed for 3 hours and I missed my transit flight.
Please improve on your LIVE customer services. We want a live person to speak too. It was very inconvenient because speaking to a chat person. PLEASE HIRE LIVE PEOPLE FOR YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICES. Thanks
Waited Over 5 Hours for a 1 1/2 hour Flight. Manila AirPort is absolutely pathetic. This was after Cebu Pacific personnel tried to overcharge me for excess baggage.
Of the discount airlines, I find AirAsia at the better end of the spectrum. Planes are clean and comfortable. Staff are polite and a bit directive (good in the Philippines). Bring your own snacks and water, or pay premium prices for these while flying.
Didn’t like anything and nothing could be better because they delayed my same flights 4 times!
Pleasant airline over all. On time, efficient, nice staff and good food.
This flight was excellent in all ways if they could repeat it consistently they would grow immediately
Philippines AirAsia is never on-time flight, delayed 3 hours. Everything else was fine though.
Boarding with air asia is excellent via organized lines by zone except when there is only 1 gate agent and no scanner, only by tearing tickets??? Crazy
The flight was supposed to depart at 9:25. It departed at 9:00. Im glad we were early and did not miss it.
Premium seats should have legroom this one didn't have it. I had 2 free checked bag but I got charged for while it shows on my reservation
Over 6 hours delayed.. using philippine air fleet planes are beat up dirty and uncomfortable. Have been flying air asia for over 4 years from Manila to Tokyo and kansai as well as several local flights from Manila to Bacolod and Cebu.. 3 planes were down for maintenance and caused havoc.. need to invest in new fleet or seriously clean and upgrade the existing fleet. Will not be flying anymore until fixed. Several options out there now to choose from as air asia prices have skyrocketed.. no point in using them anymore . Severally upset passenger here. They can’t even manage the queuing of Zones for boarding as it’s a crab fest free for all now. No discipline and let the passengers in line to board just run into any lane possible.. and priority luggage?? Forget it I’ve paid for it for the last 6 flights and never got it first.. air asia has turned into a expensive joke.. use Cebu pacific or zip air now..
The leg room was not made for corn fed Americans.
