Would I take them again ? Not sure. As a ST flier, I tend to stick to ST airlines, but once mainland flight schedules resume and prices come back to reality, I might pay a visit to the mainland first, and then just hop over to the Taiwan region for the familial part of trip. But from an objective standpoint, CI offers a solid hard product and decent soft product (if slow). Overall rating : 3,5/5 points.
I wouldnt recommend any mainland flights. Have you not read about what happened on United a few years ago?
I'm surprised anyone wants a rushed service for a 15 hour flight. Given food doesnt get served until maybe 30 minutes after takeoff, 1.5 hours is pretty quick for dinner service.
If you want to sleep after boarding, shouldnt you have eaten in the lounge as you were flying business?
