Now if the turn KA into LCC, MU, CI, CA, BR here I come, at least I will be able to get proper priority benefits on ST and * (extra kg and priority tags), whereas OW is quite bad on official benefits for status members.

Since the take over, things have gone downwards little by little.
New CC is not as good as before, with 1 or 2 bad attitude incidents that were corrected immediately by the Chief purser.
Awful inflight music for take-offs and landings (Titanic soundtrack played with Chinese lute, must be the most nasty thing ever).
Long queues on the priority line for boarding (all this pesky Marco Polo members)
Worse FFP program (for people that only fly within China and Taiwan)

For flights to TWN I tried to avoid CX at all costs, even tough they have more flights to TPE.

Give me back my KA!!!!
I'd rather fly CX/KA to TPE/KHH than CI....
But, why would you rather fly an Airbust 333/320 than a CX 77W?
