review: {"Review":{"source":"http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews10256.html","Users Review":["I fly AC every week for business. I also fly other US and CAD airlines several times per year. By FAR Air Canada is the worst of the bunch and here's why:\n\n1. No on time departure: I would say at least 90% of the time the plane departs late and can't make up time in the air. On average we depart between 30min to 1h late each time.\n\n2. Horrific customer service: I have 2 friends that are senior flight attendant and we discussed this in length. In a nutshell, Air Canada employees that...\n (read more)"]}}

I was forced to watch Justin Beiber's Never Say Never against my will. What's with the lack of technological updates???\n (read more)"]}}

review: {"Review":{"source":"http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews132274.html","Users Review":["I prefer China Eastern over China Southern for comfort and service, but, when your only other choices are Air China and low cost Chinese Airlines that are the equivalent to a Greyhound bus, I do like to take China Southern.\n\nThe food is not excellent, but it is edible. There aren't any good entertainment options on the flight, you're usually forced to watch an extremely boring PBS-like special in Chinese and very blurry/bad English Subtitles.\n\nHowever, there is one really good thing I have...\n (read more)"]}}

review: {"Review":{"Score":["2.50"],"source":"http://www.productreview.com.au/p/american-airlines.html","Users Review":["I flew American from London to JFK and had very low expectations. I was pleasantly surprised. The flight left on time, was smooth and arrived into JFK early. I thought the attendants were attentative and the food quality and frequency of meals (2 for an 8 hour flight plus numerous drink/beverage services) was as good as any other airline I have flown. I would definitely fly American again."]}}

review: {"Review":{"source":"http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/hainan.htm","Users Review":["Flew first class round trip. Flew on a highly discounted fare. Seat was similar to Thai and Lufthansa's A340-600\r\nfirst class seat. This 340-600 is worn. Video was broken at my seat outbound. All AV is old and antiquated. Crew\r\ntry to be very helpful. Food was delicious. Especially Chinese offering on return flight from Beijing. Beautifully\r\npresented. Helpful check-in at Beijing. If you book their free limo they meet you at curb side and escort you as\r\nfar as immigration. Lounge at Beijing was good. Only person in the first class lounge. Overall good value for the\r\nmoney. Only $1400.00 more than business return. Well worth it for the extra space."]}}
