...,000) is situated on the Southern most tip of the island and is the Capital City of British Columbia. The island has been inhabited by humans for some eight thousand years. Captain James Cook landed at Nootka Sound of the Island's western shore on March 31, 1778 and claimed it for the British Isles. Hence the City of Victoria was founded by the Hudson's Bay Company on March 14, 1843, as a trading post. The population of the island exploded in the 1850's with the gold rush when Victoria became a major shipping port.

Disadvantages: the service of flight attendants.

...Air China is not China air line. They are completely different two companys. China air line is a taiwanese company. It used to be a state run company, and now has been privitisated. That's the begining of its disaster. Air China is a state-run international air line company. It has guite good reputition and very famous for the safety. It's not a bad idea to take Air China from China to go abroad, because it's cheaper and the food is all right. However, I don't think the service is good. At least, not as good as China air line. There is still some room for improvement.... Read review

Advantages: safety, price, food, punctuality
Disadvantages: service of milages, less free luggage

I would prefer to take Air China, not only because of it's low price, but also because Air China has an exellent record of safety. Thanks God, the time is over, in which the flight steward fighted with the Hijackers. ;) The food is certainly not an unforgettable culinary enjoyment, but one cannot expect much more in a flight. The flight attendant are very patient, further more young and pretty. ;) It's a prerequisit to work as an attendant at Air China. They really try their best to make the customers satified. The space is perhaps a bit crowded.... Read review
