I was really excited by the Land of the Dragon itinerary, with the chance to add-on Tibet. Then I saw flights were with eastern China airlines. Never heard of them, so looked at review sites. The comments are not good especially on long haul flights. I was on the inspirational china tour last year and would love see more of such a fascinating country. We flew air china then, with some internal flights on another airline. I had upgraded to business, which was ok, but below the standard of other airlines. My fellow travellers in economy were much less happy with their flights. A couple of hours internal flight with a lower end operator is one thing, but ten or eleven hours long haul is quite another. I know cost is a factor, but could you not offer the option of flying the long haul sections with your BA partener?
