Air China Disappoints - Business Class Review from Heathrow to Beijing

I was really looking forward to this one – flying on one of Air China’s new Airbus A350s featuring the fancy new 1-2-1 business class. But sadly it was not meant to be – I arrived at the gate to find that instead I’d be flying an old A330 featuring a rather dated business class product.

Here’s the links I mentioned in the video:

Westjet 787 Business Class Review:

This Air China business class flight was from London Heathrow through to Beijing. For most airlines Heathrow is seen as a flagship route so they feature their best business class product and service. Unfortunately Air China doesn’t seem to work this way. This Air China Business Class review tells the story.
