Ladies And Gentleman , this is my first Flight Report . Well this is the most recent flight I have done, I was coming back home to Lebanon from Germany The Trip began at Strasbourg at 5:55 AM. The Lufthansa Bus was waiting for us to board inbound for Frankfurt . There is the Boeing 747-400 operated by Air China upon my arrival :
And then I went to some shops in the airport , checked in , and started spotting a bit before going to the lounge :
And a photo of the lounge , but not very expressive :P
Our Aircraft was an Airbus A320-232 : OD-MRS !
It was 11:15 AM, it means It was time to board . I am a very frequent flyer with MEA, so I have the prestige not to wait on the long general boarding line, and I am also travelling on J-Class , So my line is the SkyPriority Line. As I entered the Aircraft, one of the charming Cabin Crew Greeted us very royally , and each J-class passenger was led to his/her seat by a cabin crew (almost all ). The cabin was 55% loaded and I had Seat 5A and 5C just for me .
Legroom :
Seats :
welcome drinks tomato juice ( my choice )
Here we are airborne. The Cabin Crew served us the drinks and nuts ( delicious lebanese nuts Castania )
As soon as we reached our cruising altitude 37000FEET, the Appetizer were served :
The main dish : It is made of Fish , Shrimps , Potatoes and zucchini .
And finally Desert ( check out the MEA logo on the ice cream )
Here over Bulgaria :
IFE: great size for a 4 hours flight. The IFE has 24 Movies , 15 Television Series ,15 games, and a very large selection of music which are programmed by Virgin Radio :
And here we are in Beirut :

Thanks for publishing your first FR! We went from no FRs on MEA in J to 2 in one day! Too bad there aren't actually any pictures of the lounge. The meal looks decent but what is it? You do not provide any desciption. I find your grading of the product to be a little bit over-generous. 10/10 for comfort means it is the absolute best business class seat in it's category on this route? Hmmm...SKYTEAMMATEO posted a FR yesterday that had actual flat-seats--I would imagine those are better that these seats. You say that these seats are flatbeds but they are clearly recliners not flatbeds. Nevertheless they do look comfortable. p.s. there are quite a lot of grammatical and spelling errors, could you please take some time to re-read your FR, Thanks!
Well sir my generosity is quite accurate as I flew turkish airlines A321 Tc-JRZ J-class , B777-300 Affaires AirFrance F-GSQC, LH3484 J-class D-AIZK , EgyptAir A330 SU-GDS Horus Class ( J class ) and I personally see MEA's J-class seats are way more comfy than the others I sited. The errors are corrected and MEA will be famous on FR soon ;)
Great thanks! LOL don't call me sir; I'm not that old haha. If you feel that this seat deserves a 10/10 than more power to you and it certainly appears to be a notch above the competition, but like I said in my original post, these seats in your FR are recliners. Wouldn't you grade the better seats like in SKYTEAMMATEO's FR as being 10/10 rather than these recliners? I don't know, just seems logical to me, but hey, to each his own.
That makes sense. I actually like these kind of seats. Delta has the same model in J on the transcontinental premium flights from JFK-SFO/LAX and I find them very comfortable for J on a narrowbody.

I trust you when you say the seats are confortable, but they do not look so !
Beware the both your name and FF number are visible on the picture. Don't leave this information to the open public ;)
Thanks for this report :)
