Find Cheap Flights from Vancouver Intl to Taipei Taiwan Taoyuan Intl & other Airports (YVR - TPE)

New plane,comfortable seats, modern entertainment

Ethiopian Airlines check in staff made a pigs-ear of my check in process. First they claimed I'd missed the flight (my ticket said 2335 on 15 Dec, they changed flight to 0010 on 16 Dec, but claimed that as my ticket was for 15 Dec my booking was invalid). They proceeded to re-issue me with a new ticket a (for the 0010 fight on 16 Dec), but then also tried to change my connecting flights by one day - even though they should remain the same (in effect the flight was only put back by 35 minutes, so why change a booking for connecting flight by 24 hours?). Fortunately on arrival in Shanghai, air china check me onto the correct flight. However, to compound matters, my luggage has gone missing and, bizarrely, Ethiopian airlines issued all foreign passengers with landing cards for Japan - not China!

The Crew woke everyone up in the middle of the night with 5 hours to go to serve breakfast. Should have let people sleep and served breakfast with 1.5 hours to go.

Crew was friendly, about as expected for the cheap price

No vegetarian option, in flight headphones were useless, can't use phone AT ALL during flight, gate was changed without warning (no announcements over the PA or notices posted that it was changed)

I liked that the crew was attentive to our needs.

I wish we had more snacks offered

Nothing

When we landed Hong Kong. The plane to Abu Dhabi had closed boarding. Very unprofessional management from airport crew. Me and other 40 passengers will have to wait for the next flight which could be after two days. I booked Emirates to Dubai and I have taken a decision that neither me or my friends will never never go for the poor Hong Kong airlines.

Friendly crew, tasty food. Way better than US-based long-haul travel. Super easy transfer for international connection at Hong Kong Airport.

No kiosks for a more expedient check-in process. Difficult time selecting seats prior to online check-in. Blankets provided, but no pillows.

Courtesy and smiling faces.

I actually have no complaints. All went well on both legs of my flight.

Coffe and snack

Good guidance

There's no boarding zone?

Fan tasting service by the crew members from the point of check in. Very attentive to all details.

Nothing

I don't have any complain about the flight. It was average or a little above average. I just couldn't sleep well probably because the head rest is too high or what. But I'm 5 feet 7. The pillow can be improved as well (firmer).

There was good food and entertainment

I'd like better vegetarian options for food though

Boarding was easy. clean plane, crew was very friendly. I was very concerned though, when we banked left and did a complete circle in the air. An explanation from the captain would have been terrific. I made sure I was the last one to leave the plane and asked him about it when I saw him at the exit. He told me what happened but I would have liked to know while it was happening. Besides that, the coke and pretzels were divine. :)

coffee was horrible

Cheap but much better than the Southern China airlines trip we took a couple of years ago. Airbus entertainment system worked, meals were hot, tea and beer flowed freely, seats were packed but not as tightly, restrooms stayed clean. Sit on the right side to enjoy views of Alaska and Japan coastlines and twilight fishing vessels.

Would be nice to have pan/tilt/zoom on the front/down exterior camera feeds.

I loved that my knees didn't touch the seat in front of me. As a tall girl and a 12hr flight that would not have been comfortable at all.

40kg baggage allowance

1. You are trying to communicate with me in Dutch, which I don't understand. I only understand English. 2. My booking was not eligible for online seat selection or check-in.

Service

bring back Me Before You!

Loved the airline it was great!

Great leg room, excellent service and meals

Excellent

Food was better than most. The crew was nice. The flight departed promptly.

The touch screen didn't work, and the bar below the chair that one can step on couldn't hold itself up, and I constantly had to reposition it. The audio port of the seat next to me didn't work either. The plane definitely needs a renovation.

The service was pretty good. I only had an hour to board my next flight, so flight attendants moved me up towards the front of the plane so that I could exit earlier than others. I was able to make it to my next flight.

There was a 3-hour delay after all the passengers boarded. We were all sitting inside the plane without any explanation. At first, the captain blamed airport for not giving any updates on their departure, and a flight attendant that I talked to blamed the local temperature, which was a total nonsense. Later the captain announced that there was an issue with the engine. My layover was supposed to be 4.5 hours, but it got cut to 1 hour due to the unexpected delay that they had not clearly explained. I had to run to catch my next flight. When I got to my final destination, I found out Air China did not transfer my bag on time, so I had to file extra paper works in order to receive my bag two days later.

I got two beers and a decent meal

The aircraft was old and dumpy. The IFE is very insufficient and needs to be renewed.

Flight was delayed then after many hours got to know that the flight was cancelled. . It was terrible and didn't expect it.due to this my plans and work for effected. Now after my arrival to USA I received my laguages after 2 days. when I received my laguage Many of my stuffs are missing. I'm highly disappointed with this service. I'm never ever going to use air China again. I won't recommend to my friends too. A very bad service

We got stucked in hong kong and had to buy extra tickets because the airline cancelled the ones i bought from kayak since my wife could not get into bangkok

Big jet

Delayed flight by one hour for the second time this month. No tv on board. Not enought room for legs

Crew was nice. Flight was an hour late getting off the ground.

The staff were great with my dog(golden retriever) really helped me... Also the service overall was fantastic best journey I have experienced yet travelling to China and I have lived here 8 years so probably 100 flights

Nothing was all great thanks

It was an okay flight, nothing that great to speak of.

Breakfast was pretty deplorable.

Air china flight attendants are extremely rude. I don't know if they're over worked but they definitely aren't happy

The crew and ticket and gate personnel were awesome. Very polite and very helpful. It was even cooler that we were selected for a bump up to buisness class.

Crew was surprised that someone on the flight might not eat pork... They had zero non-pork options. They brought a biscuit/cracker thing. They had to be asked 4 times to bring me water. The flight was delayed but there was no announcement about how long it might take... nothing. When the announcements came through the headphones they were ridiculously(!!!) loud. People we ripping the ear buds from their ears but it was never fast enough. It actually blew out the speakers on my headphones. Thanks for breaking my headphones!! Flight attendants never did anything about the people who were out of their seats after landing. One bag fell out and hit me.

The young kids really enjoyed the multi-player video games that were offered on the plane. The windows were really cool too! The amount of light/color coming from the windows were adjustable with the press of a button. It was the first flight for the younger kids, and they loved it!

Difficult to find employees in the Toronto airport. Security needed to help me locate someone after my plane was delayed causing me to miss my connection. On the way back had a delay again lucky if was my final leg.
