That said, I would probably pick Xiamen over them (still get SkyTeam), or possibly Hainan if I didn't care about SkyTeam earnings.
100% with you -- with a decent hardware at this super low price, the smoking issue would be the only deal breaker here, and I'd also like to hear more DP on that. I'd agree that Hainan/Xiamen would probably be better, but flying out of JFK a non-stop would tip the scale a bit for me.
