I Tried China’s Worst Rated Airline 🇨🇳
Hugh Abroad2026-03-0829 min

In this video I leave Sanya Airport in Hainan and take a flight to Beijing on what many people online call China’s worst rated airline, Air China. The reviews for this airline are surprisingly bad, so I was curious to see if it really deserved the reputation. This is a four hour domestic flight across China and I show you the full experience along the way. I give you a tour of my seat, show the food served on board and share my honest thoughts on what the flight is actually like. After landing in Beijing I collect my bag and take the public metro into the city to reach my hotel. I check in, give you a quick room tour and then head out to try some local food. I originally thought I was going to eat Beijing duck but I actually ended up having goose instead. While I was eating a friendly local sitting beside me shared some traditional rice wine with me which made for a great end to the evening.
