I recently travelled to China on BA. Their plane was good, comfortable with a good range of movies, etc. After a 13 hour flight to Hong Kong I was alittle concerned about the subsequent flight to Guangzhou. As it happened Hong Kong airport was a really good stop-over point, and the China-Southern check in desk were very polite.
Upon boarding the 737 we realised that the fleet was modern, and the crew polite. Although the flight was only 35 minutes long my daughter was given a childrens fabric back-pack with crayons, colouring books etc. (something BA didn't do on a 13 hour flight!) We were also given complimentary bottles of mineral water and nuts. Legroom and seat comfort was average for a plane of this size.
The return flight was equally pleasent, with the added bonus of being 'upgraded' to business class.
All in all a very satisfactory experience. As the name suggests China Southern cover all of Southern China with an extensive flight schedule. The cost was around £120 each which I didn't think was too bad for a national airline. Perhaps Easyjet ought to muscle in on China though!!

Good brief opinion although I suspect this may be in the wrong category. It is a shame that all brits are very concerned about how great BA are when most other carriers are better than them. Haven't flown with CS, but will remember to try to next time I visit :) Cheers > Dan
