Well, there's no First so if you're accustomed to requesting those special extras that you know they stock for First passengers (like the nice chocolates that come in a little box) - there aren't any.

Who is this guy? Way too many exclamation points and superlatives. I can't imagine everything was that amazing and great and incredible. Interior certainly looks nicer than LY's existing fleet, but 3-3-3 on 787 is not exciting. And not sure why he said the legroom was so great. Just basing on his video it didn't look good.

I couldn't agree more. Very childish and in fact I was underwhelmed by how the Y section looks. The food also looks dreadful but that has nothing to do with the aircraft, off course. For me, a good reminder why not to fly LY

According to the photo, this has happened in the J cabin.
I wonder if there are different cleaning/maintenance instructions for the 787 electronic windows.
