Asian Airlines

First long haul flight and it was rough. Seat wouldn’t recline at all on a 16 hour flight, stuck upright the whole time. Entertainment screens were broken and parts of the seat were literally held together with zip ties. Food wasn’t great either. Tried to upgrade for the return...

Booked MAN to Guangzhou via Hong Kong with the ferry transfer, but just got told the ferry is now pushed back to 15:00… which means sitting around for like 8 hours after landing. Now wondering if it’s possible to just enter Hong Kong after landing and take the train to Guangzhou...

We were supposed to fly DEL to SFO on March 14 and got notified about 12 hours before departure that our flight was cancelled. Instead of a reasonable alternative, they rebooked us for April 2… almost 3 weeks later. Called them and basically got told there was nothing they could...

My Qatar flight got cancelled and the only option available was Air India, so I ended up flying Bangkok to Mumbai and then Mumbai to Frankfurt with a 12 hour layover in between. Honestly I was surprised by how good the flights were. Both planes were very clean. The first flight...

I’ve seen those airplane collectible cards all over social media lately and thought they looked pretty cool. Since I’m flying with Singapore Airlines soon, I was wondering if they also have those kinds of cards. If they do, how do you usually get one? Would love to grab one as a...

My mother and I recently flew from Dallas to Hong Kong in business class, and her experience wasn’t great. I’m wondering if it’s even worth reaching out to Cathay Pacific about it. Her seat had several issues. The power outlet didn’t work for the entire flight, and the seat...

I was looking at flights from NYC to Tokyo on ANA and the normal roundtrip price is around $6,300 in business class. But I found an interesting workaround. A flight from NYC to Delhi on American Airlines is about $2,000. Then there’s an ANA business class ticket from Delhi to...

I recently flew Air India to Amsterdam with my wife and our 11-month-old baby. When booking the tickets we saw the bassinet seats were already taken, so customer service booked us extra legroom seats instead and we paid for them in advance. Online check-in went smoothly and we...

I have a 50 minute layover in Hong Kong on a Cathay Pacific itinerary and I’m a bit nervous about it. I’ll be flying Ho Chi Minh City → Hong Kong → Dallas, all on Cathay. It’s my first time flying with them and I’ve heard they sometimes help passengers with tight connections. If...

My friend and I are flying into Delhi for a show and our flight lands around 2am. We originally planned to rest for a few hours at the Encalm lounge in Terminal 3 since both of our credit cards include lounge access. Does anyone know if the lounge allows entry on arrival, even...

Looking for any advice because this situation is getting ridiculous. I was on a JAL flight (booked through AA) and my phone slipped inside the lie-flat seat during the flight. When we landed, I tried to retrieve it but couldn’t reach it. A flight attendant noticed and called...

I have a trip booked later this year that ends with Istanbul → Dubai → Melbourne, with the Dubai–Melbourne flight connecting through Singapore (3.5-hour layover). Because of everything going on right now, I’m considering skipping Istanbul and Dubai entirely and flying to...

I have a trip booked on one ticket with the following flights: Air Canada: Calgary → Toronto → Delhi Air India: Delhi → Nagpur I arrive in Delhi around 8 PM, and my domestic Air India flight to Nagpur is at 6 AM the next morning, so there’s about a 10-hour layover. A few things...

Booked a round trip MIA → DFW → NRT → HKG through American for me and my son. At booking he was 11, but he’ll be 12 by the time we actually travel. The AA flights (MIA–DFW–NRT) are on American metal, and the NRT–HKG segment is on Cathay Pacific. When I tried entering his...

Booked a Korean Air flight from Tokyo (NRT) to Busan (PUS) through Booking.com for a trip to Japan and Korea later this year. The ticket was marked non-refundable, but Korean Air said it should still qualify for a full refund if cancelled within 24 hours of booking. The problem...

Have an 8 hour layover in Hong Kong (HKG) with Cathay Pacific. Lounge access is available at the Kyra lounge, but entry is only allowed around 3–4 hours before departure. That leaves roughly 4 hours at the start of the layover with nothing really planned. The previous connection...

Flight AI127 from Delhi ended up delayed because three business class seats were broken and the passengers assigned to them refused to move to economy. What made it more frustrating was that the aircraft had reportedly been on the ground for about five hours, so it wasn’t a...

Had a multi city business class ticket via Doha. Flew JFK to DOH to BLR in February with no problems. Return was supposed to be COK to DOH to JFK on March 18, but things got messy when Qatar Airways operations stopped. The flight still showed as scheduled in the system even...

Showed up about 4 hours early for Air India flight AI278 from Colombo to Canada via Delhi. At the airport they said the flight was cancelled because of the conflict in the Middle East. The confusing part was that people were still getting checked in for the flight, and later it...
