The food turned out to be one of the highlights of the flight. I started with stuffed chicken paired with potatoes and mushrooms — a flavorful and surprisingly restaurant-quality dish.
We also tried the oriental-style braised beef cheek, which was tender and rich.
Beyond the formal meal service, there was also an “anytime” menu. At any point during the flight, you could order a sandwich, a bowl of egg-noodle soup, or a variety of small snacks.
We didn’t lean on it this time, but as a parent, I loved knowing it was there in case my son got hungry outside of meal times.
Another unexpected perk: I was able to order a proper latte in the morning. Usually, I avoid airplane coffee altogether, but this was actually good — smooth, not burnt-tasting, and served with a bit of flair in a real mug.
It felt like a small luxury, but after hours in the air, it made a big difference.
