Conclusion

The flight was fine.
Although the aircraft is 23 years old, Cathay Dragon still renew the cabin. Let the passenger enjoy the comfy flight.

The meal is delicious and portion is enough for the short flight.

Nothing to complain, the flight was delayed for 45 mins due to the air traffic control.

Wow, a meal for such short flight! Impressive!

Yes, the meal is impressive. In Europe, such short flight would not provide free food or drink.

That is the different of carrier between Asia and Europe.

Hope you enjoy my report.
