Hello y'all Welcome to another trip-report on Air China's relatively new Dreamliner! Air China uses the 787-9 on routes like Los Angeles, Montreal, Rome, Auckland, and many other Chinese destinations. Overall, I think the 787 is a much better option than Air China 's 777-300ER. This is my second flight from my connecting flight from Harbin to Singapore via PEK.

Disembarked. PS: They look way too excited after a redeye flight.
Air China offers many connecting options here at PEK. Connecting from domestic to international is always an ease at PEK.
Security+Immigration took about 30 minutes.

Chose the western option because the Chinese one looked unappetizing. fruit croissant scrambled eggs mysterious meat sausage hash brown or mash potatoes can't really tell one cold roma tomato Chinese yogurt TBH the only edible things are the pineapples, tomato, and the yogurt NOT A PLEASANT MEAL
Bathroom tour I got hungry in the middle of the flight, and I askes the FA if there is anything eat She offered me the hard as brick croissant from breakfast I declined Wish Air China serves a second meal or some snacks on this 6 hours flight.

Conclusion
Air China is a cheap option when connecting through PEK The flight was generally pleasant, although I would appreciate some snacks or refreshments during the flight. Most passengers were asleep during the entire flight. On this route, Singapore airlines definitely beats Air China, however SQ was about $1,200, and I paid $303 to fly Air China I would certainly choose to fly Air China again in the future!

Thanks for this FR. Given the price difference you were still better off flying CA than SQ, thoug I agree the meal looks bad and is served at a bad time, before landing would be better.
