今次,Anky仔和Kurtis介绍一下天合联盟成员--中华航空的子公司华信航空。👍👍
Anky and Kurtis are introducing you another SkyTeam member, Mandarin Airlines, a sister airline of CHINA AIRLINES.👍👍
另外,今次介绍的不是空中巴士及波音公司的机型,而是巴西航空工业公司(EMBRAER)的飞机。我们相信香港,台湾,日本的朋友应该也听过。它比较有名气的机型有ERJ170 (E170)和ERJ190 (E190)。这次,我们就带大家去看看华信航空的ERJ190。✈✈🛩🛩🛩
What's more, the aircraft type being introduced this time isn't Airbus or Boeing company, it is an Embraer aircraft (EMBRAER). We believe that aviation fans in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan should have heard of it. Their famous models are ERJ170 (E170) and ERJ190 (E190). This time, we will take everyone to see the ERJ190 of Mandarin Airlines.✈✈🛩🛩🛩
华信公司ERJ190有飞的航线 :
我们这次有幸的乘搭ERJ190机型执飞的AE983由高雄前往香港。飞机编号是B-16821。它2007年5月出厂,听说华信航空最近已经把他们退役了。🤦♂️🤦♂️
由于高雄小港机场不大,所以我们好快去了登机门准备登机。
We were fortunate enough to travel on the ERJ190 operating as AE983 flying us from Kaoshiung to Hong Kong. The rego of the plane was B-16821 and it was only manufactured in 2007. Sadly, there are rumours that Mandarin Airlines has been retired the fleet.🤦♂️🤦♂️
登机
进入机舱后,会有空服经理跟你说欢迎登机,并检查你的登机证。登机证是写CHINA AIRLINES,但航班编号是写AE的。
The crew warmly greeted us after boarding. The boarding pass says 'China Airlines' on the top but the flight is actually AE-operated.
之后转右,你就看到飞机是全经济舱座位。😱😱
The aircraft is configured into all-economy😱😱
机组是用华信航空的机长及空服,虽然制服一样,但员工证是有写华信航空及中华航空的分别~
Although the crew's uniform is identical to that of China Airlines', they are actually crew from Mandarin Airlines
座位方面 💺💺💺
-座位以2-2配置 (A,B,C,D)💺💺 💺💺
Seat Configuration: 2-2 (A,B,C,D)
-座位有26排,共104个座位
There are 104 seats across 26 rows
-座位比B738还要舒服(我觉得,哈哈)
The seats are actually more comfortable than that of the 737
-空服(包括空服经理)只有3名
There were only 3 crew, customer service manager included
-洗手间只有2个(驾驶舱后及机尾)
2 lavatories (one at the front and the other at the rear)
-紧急出口:第12排,所以第11排不可调后
Emergecy exit is located at row 12, so that seats at row 11 can't be reclined
-飞机没电视 (1小时机程还好)
There's no IFE screens, but I'm fine without one on this short flight
-安全示范由空服经理说,空服亲自示范
The CSM read out the safety demo script while the crew perform the demonstration themselves
在安全示范的时候,飞机就后退,准备滑行至跑道起飞。
Pushback commenced while the safety demo was in progress.
起飞后,空服先派发特别餐,例如:水果餐,儿童餐。之后才派发正常餐。
Special meals such as fruit meals and kids meals were distributed first. followed by general meal service.
正常餐由2名空服一起派发。
General meal service was performed by the 2 crews
由于只是1小时航班,所以只得1款。(当然你可以选择不食,哈哈)
There was only one meal option (of course you can always choose not to eat)
另一幸运的是,餐点不是鸡肉堡,而且热餐。
Luckily we received a hot meal instead of a bun
(华信航空通常在台湾会上回程餐的。)
(Return meals are often loaded in Taiwan on Mandarin Airlines flights)
空服派完餐给所有旅客后,一名空服会派咖啡,另一名空服就派中国茶。
After meals were distributed, coffee and tea were offered
飞机比预定时间早了10分钟降落香港国际机场。但由于ERJ190是窄体飞机(只得1条信道),所以抵达的机位也是远机位,要坐巴士回到第一航厦转机,入境,领取行李。
We arrived 10 minutes ahead of schedule. Because the ERJ190 is a single-aisle jet, we disembarked on the apron, requiring us to catch a bus to reach the terminal and collect our luggage
ERJ190在香港不时也会看到,除了1天2班的华信航空外,中国南方航空不定时也会有ERJ190飞梅县。
The ERJ190 is pretty common in Hong Kong. China Southern Airlines is another operator of the aircraft apart from Mandarin Airlines
