      If you don't mind toddler sitting on the lap of the passenger next to you kicking and screaming and occasionally kicking you as well then you will be fine with that.
      Source: my own experience so NO to this airline thanks.

        that's hardly the airline's fault is it? I have been on Qantas flights where my own son kicks the back of seats and shouts despite my dismal efforts in trying to calm him and hide in embarrassment. Now that he is older now, he is great to fly with

    Flew China Southern from Europe back to Australia in March this year and was pleasantly surprised. Would definitely travel with them again.

    Worst airline I've ever flown. worst cabin service, aircraft - Seats broken, toilets broken, terrible food and transit/layover times. In this case, the price reflects the quality.

  I don't understand the hate for China Southern, it's usually seating leg space (which is standard) & quality of fellow passengers that keeps getting mentioned.

  I've flown china southern a few times. If you are not short try to book extra legroom. If you are wide in the shoulders try and book aisle seats - it is miserable otherwise (this is the best you'll get without springing for a class upgrade which sort of defeats the purpose of flying a budget airline imo). If their online checkin system fails all hell breaks loose tho (they don't have many staff at checkin and most of the chinese passengers going to china for business/family etc usually checkin online) - think several hours in checkin line for a big flight. My biggest criticism is their website is awful and hard to use (crashes, not translated well into english), and the checkin times when said website goes down. Food is generally good - unless you're averse to it get the chinese option, have found it to be better than the "western option" every time. In flight entertainment is generally good, they do have a weird rule about not using mobile phone on board (not for calls data but for everything - camera, music, video etc) - this rule is heard in the pre flight briefing and enforced by the cabin crew. Baggage - on some flights they give you 2x20kg bags rather than 1x32kg - something to check if you are going to bring a lot of weight in only 1 checked bag. Guanzhou airport is boring (but luckily in this deal you won't be there long) - but can be slow to transit! From my experience 1hr is dicey, 2hrs is generally ok.
