Taipei - Tokyo
North Asia
This Taipei-Tokyo-Taipei return proves again that China Airlines is a solid 4 stars for short-haul business class. Service standards were similar on both routes and on the same aircraft type -- A350 -- which has the full-flat seat meant for long haul. The cabin has aged but is still in good condition. Meals were very good and there is always a Japanese option, which, in my opinion, should be taken as it is authentic. Cabin crew were very friendly and hardworking, though they were stretched to the limit due to an almost-full cabin. Beverages were more than adequate, though they offer a lesser version compared to the long-haul flights. This, I found out when I was handed the wrong wine list -- one for long-haul flights, which offered vintage champagnes and decade-old wines. For short haul, the list was not as good, but it is more than sufficient. One area that seemed less than luxurious was the bathroom. There are only very simple economy-class amenities, and no eau de toilette or perfume. For this, it is not 5-star level, but a solid 4 stars. Lounges are a weak spot. Dynasty Lounge in Tokyo is spacious but poor in F&B - only low-quality stuff. Dynasty Lounge in Taipei Terminal 2 is better but still below average.

Taipei - San Francisco
International
from Taiwan to SF, my suitcase is damaged. I filed a claim at SFO with all the information: phone number, email... after 2 weeks, no body call back or email back to me to talk about the damaged. I called China airlines 18002275118, no person to talk to. no option for complain. I wish there is zero start so I can give this airlines.

Frankfurt - Denpasar
International
My boyfriend will come in a few weeks to visit me, he called the airline to tell them he has a severe allergy to nuts, even breathing near them is bothering. Usually flight companies arrange their meals according to such needs, but THEY cannot do anything to the menu and can’t even know whether they are serving nuts or not, in the dishes. He will do 17h on an airplane, from Frankfurt to Taiwan and then to me in Bali and they told him they will serve him a plate of fruit on both flights, and he should bring his own food. Now let’s hope people around him won’t get nuts as snacks or so

We were bumped onto a flight the next day - no reason given (operational resaons no help towards our additional hotel night. Is this for cynical economic gain or some other reason?

"Try to keep the foot space in front of you clear so you have maximum adjustability (should be plenty of space in overhead bin)."
