You tried all the BR new aircrafts !
I'm eager to try the business class in this 787...
Too bad the catering just suffered of cost cutting again. 2 years ago a hot meal was offered on the same route...
That's what I like about flying throughout Asia, to travel on long haul carriers.
The cabin is comfortable espacially when the flight is empty
"I have never seen an airline so focus on making sure that bins were completely closed and several FA's rechecked this."=> you notices that too. Even SQ boys and girls are not like that.
The animals-shaped dumplings are so nice. How cruel from you to eat them like that (LOL)
Roasted goose: YUUUUMMMMMYYY!!!
"That's what I like about flying throughout Asia, to travel on long haul carriers."
- It used to be that you were guaranteed a widebody aircraft when you travel within Asian a few decades ago. That seems to be changing lately. My return HKG-TPE was on an A321 and MH has been deploying 737's on their HKG-KUL routes.

- I have yet to see a dumpling shaped like a bear. :P
"Roasted goose: YUUUUMMMMMYYY!!!"
- Don't get me salivating! There were far more food pics but I did not post them all. After all this is an aviation site, right? ;)
Thanks for your support.
Nice cabin look. BR is departing from its corporate (dark) green, which IMO is a welcome change.
Few passenger know that the ponds seen just after takeoff from TPE are the historic reminders of two and a half centuries of development of aquaculture in an originally infertile plain. Over 3,000 of them remain today, from a peak total close to 9,000 before industrialisation took off in the early 70s.
Nice view of the brand new bridge-tunnel link between HK and Macau + Zhuhai !
Thanks for sharing this report and its bonus - I share your appraisal of the Chi Lin Nunnery.
- Perhaps I will devote more time for exploration next time I'm there, although I remember passing by the famous "Hello Kitty" gate during my TPE-HKG connection.
" BR is departing from its corporate (dark) green, which IMO is a welcome change."
- It's not a flattering color to work with but as you know in Chinese culture it symbolizes prosperity and therefore it is ingrained in the corporate culture. The addition of different colors has improved the aesthetics, especially of the FA uniforms. The bright green from decades ago used to be just hideous.
"Few passenger know that the ponds seen just after takeoff from TPE are the historic reminders of two and a half centuries of development of aquaculture in an originally infertile plain."
- Your insight is always timely and valuable. Thanks for sharing that.
"Nice view of the brand new bridge-tunnel link between HK and Macau + Zhuhai !"
- I was not aware of it. Again thanks for pointing that out.
"I share your appraisal of the Chi Lin Nunnery."
- A must visit place in HK, especially for the first timer and so easy to access via the metro (Diamond Hill stop).
Thank you for commenting François.
- Now you know why they don't !
Free newspapers in economy? I saw that in Argentina, but in my country we are still in the stone age, it seems.
Wonderful bonuses. The images of the temple moved me to reflection, indeed. And the images of food moved me to the fridge!
Thanks for sharing!
- So true. The seat pattern design is very unique IMHO.
"... in my country we are still in the stone age, it seems"
- From your FR's it seems that Chile is far from that. ;)
"The images of the temple moved me to reflection, indeed. And the images of food moved me to the fridge!"
- That means that I'm a decent photographer after all. :P
Gracias por tus comentarios Nelson.
The cabin looks really chic and modern with huge IFE. Yes, from a US perspective, the meal service on a 1.5 hour flight seems great, but it's true that you almost expect more from Asian carriers.
Always pleasant to have an empty flight. p.s. thanks for the #foodporn bonus. Yum
Thanks for sharing!
- I believe that the longest intra-Asian route on BR's network is TPE-DPS or CGK and that is about 5 hrs. Now if they plan to use that plane to BNE then it is a stretch and a PEY cabin would make a difference.
"...but it's true that you almost expect more from Asian carriers."
- Especially from a 5-star one. ;)
" p.s. thanks for the #foodporn bonus. Yum"
- You bet. I hope it was satisfying. :P
Thanks for commenting as always Kevin.
- FAs might not be as engaging as the other competitors, but they are proactive and efficient. When I returned an empty bottle of water in the back galley the FA offered me a new one without asking and she already opened the cap. Now that is service!
Thanks for commenting ThomasDutch.
