The reason is always “Oops, our system is not available right now…”! This is the worst app I’ve ever used! ### 1/5 — 值机还要锁票 *2026-08-01, version 7.49.1* 吃相难看 ### 1/5 — Air China, was macht ihr nur :( *2026-07-29* Ich versuche seit Wochen mich da anzumelden bzw einen Account zu erstellen. Bekomme keine SMS und ein anderes System kann ich nicht auswählen. Ich nutze weitere „Airlines Apps“ die um weiten besser sind und hatte nie Probleme gehabt. Ich verstehe nicht warum man hier nix dagegen macht. Kann leider nun den Online Check in nicht nutzen und muss somit zum check in Schalter persönlich hin. Bitte macht was dagegen lieber Entwickler. ### 1/5 — U *2026-07-29, version 7.49.1* terrible design ### 1/5 — A nightmare *2026-07-25, version 7.49.1* The app does not recognize anything you input. Can’t check in, cant even choose a seat ### 1/5 — Shameful app! *2026-07-18, version 7.49.1* Kindly ask ur developers to see Cathay pacific / Singapore airlines app.Worst app experience ever. ### 1/5 — APP *2026-07-10, version 7.49.0* APP designed extremely bad, no professional, almost unusable, bad experience ### 1/5 — 스케줄보호해제어케하냐고요ㅠㅠㅠㅠ *2026-07-09* 앱에도 안떠서 미치겟네 전화해봐도 없으면 안된다하고 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t fly with them *2026-09-04, version 7.51.0* The worse customer service I’ve ever seen. ### 1/5 — Really bad *2026-09-02, version 7.51.0* The app is useless and their English translation and app navigation is worse than anything in the 80’s ### 1/5 — Terrible UI, and full of glitches *2026-09-01, version 7.51.0* It’s rare today to see an app that provides such poor UX. It’s slow, buggy, duplicated security verification processes everywhere, and forcing you to go through highly unoptimized processes to book a ticket, with instructions that are often unclear and sometimes grammatically wrong. And just by using it, you will have a strong sense that their backend systems are a mess too (why do they have different sets of passwords and IDs for air china account and phoenix-miles account? And guess which one you should use to log on to their official website? It will surprise you. And you can’t even see the bookings made on their official website airchina.us) By the way, this app is not the worst. Their US website is worse. ### 1/5 — 0 Star *2026-08-31, version 7.51.0* Why a simple check in becomes so complicated ### 1/5 — If I could rate it 0 star, I would. *2026-08-31, version 7.51.0* Worst airline app I’ve ever used—unusable verification process I rarely leave negative reviews, but this app is a complete failure. Air China's website is severely outdated and constantly crashing, so I downloaded the app to manage my booking. To even access my account, US passport holders are forced through a mandatory "personal identification" process. The NFC scanner completely failed, claiming my scanned info didn't match my account (even though it was identical). The only other option is uploading a selfie holding my passport for a manual review. Requiring manual passport verification just to view an existing flight reservation is absurd. I gave up and deleted the app. A state-owned flag carrier should have basic digital infrastructure that actually works. Avoid. It shows the true color of state run garbage. ### 1/5 — Nothing works! *2026-08-27, version 7.50.2* I don’t often write reviews but this app is hopeless. Can’t check in. Can’t retrieve booking itinerary details. Can’t create an account. Can’t edit any existing bookings without paying for some sort of subscription? Can’t even search flight details with flight numbers, of which a simple google search would bring those details up. What’s the point of this app? It’s a mystery to me. ### 1/5 — 验证太繁琐 *2026-08-26, version 7.50.2* 登录体验差 ### 1/5 — Anmeldung nicht möglich *2026-08-25* Anmeldung unmöglich. SMS kommt nie an, komplette App damit unbrauchbar. ### 1/5 — Pire service de reservation *2026-08-23* Air China est la pire compagnie en terme de réservation. Site internet, impossible d'acheter de billets sans que le site bug, c'est le cas sur tout les appareils, et idem sur l'application. Visiblement ils ne veulent pas de notre argent. Pas grave on ira voir les autres compagnies ### 1/5 — Handynummer verifizieren geht nicht *2026-08-23* Handynummer Verifizierung schlagt immer fehl bzw es kommt egal wie nichts an, und ohne geht gar nichts nicht mal der support ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 乘机感受 *2026-08-29* 每次乘坐国航飞行 都感觉国航的软件服务绝对一流 ，没有什么可说。可是谈到硬件真是有太多问题了 既然是国际航班 那么基本设施有很多问题 充电接口松弛 脚踏板损坏 厕所马桶泛黄陈旧不堪等等 机上餐食水平有待提高 特别是酒水饮料太普通 好像国际航班使用很多国际大牌品种 比如想使用一些烈度酒水基本没有 有时想食用方便面食也是没有 可以向同行国泰航空 香港航空 日本航空学习一下 提高一些 真正达到国际高水平的航空服务标准 。拙见于此 望改善 致谢！多年一老乘客 ### 5/5 — 喜欢国航 *2026-08-28* 在职时，多年来一直选乘国航出国，国航服务规范，优质，喜欢阅读飞机上的刊物（鹏程，还是什么，忘记名字）了。退休以后，我的国航知音卡丢失了，后来又多次乘坐国航，不知道是否自动积分，还是要补办知音卡。祝国航越办越好！黄女士 ### 5/5 — 性价比好 *2026-07-27* 我出行总是选择星空联盟，中国国际拥有覆盖全面的航线，空服员又亲切，价格也很优惠，有时候中转后机时间较长，又可以申请免费的中转酒店，一直是我心目中最优先选择的航空公司。 ### 5/5 — 云端平稳出行，国航旅途体验有感 *2026-07-24* 搭乘国航航班出行，整体感受稳健安心。机组飞行技术扎实，起飞、降落过程平缓，遇到气流处置稳妥，安全感充足。空乘服务规范有礼，按需提供饮品、毛毯，响应及时。长途乘坐建议优选靠前或者安全出口座位。 美中不足在于经济舱座椅空间局促，机上餐食还有提升空间。 ### 5/5 — Kkkkkk *2026-07-18* Kkkkk ### 5/5 — 国航一直是最棒的 *2026-06-09, version 7.48.0* 每一次乘坐国航都有一种非常安心的感觉。 ### 5/5 — Me encanta Air China *2026-05-23, version 7.47.1* Nos encanta volar en Air China, es nuestra compañía favorita y que rica la comida china💕😃💋✈️😍 ### 5/5 — 操作方便 *2026-05-19, version 7.47.1* 操作简单方便 ### 5/5 — 国航 *2026-05-15, version 7.47.1* 服务到位空姐素质高飞机配餐也是很不错的👍👍 ### 5/5 — 我是新加坡CTC大通旅行社的领队 *2026-04-07, version 7.45.1* 我代表我一年里面的客人给CA航空公司！感谢你们飞机全部的全体员工！感谢你们也非常配合我生为新加坡领队的工作！客人们对你们的餐食和服务态度非常的礼貌！万分的感谢您们 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
