I flew back to YVR from HKG with Hong Kong Air once, it was pretty ghetto. They use Airbus 330-200s. No headrest entertainment system. I think CP and ANA fly 777/787's and they have the headrest entertainment systems. However, they do loan out Ipads for the flight, loaded with typical long haul movies and tv shows. I would rate China Eastern Airlines over HKA if that helps rank their flights against other airlines. For the YVR to Eastern Asia route anyways.

I would bring a portable battery if you're going to use an Ipad or phone, they don't have USB outlets or even AC outlets.

Food was decent.

For the cheap price, I'd say it's worth it for me. I usually bring my own entertainment, sleep on the plane, watch TV/Movies and have plenty of battery life for the 10 hour trip.

Leg room seemed shorter than most, but maybe it was the perception of an old plane.
