Will be heading to JFK via ICN in about 2 weeks. I see that KE 085 is operated with the "old seats". (Y)


What can I expect in Y in terms of avod, ife food etc?

Thanks!

Every time Ive flown KE JFK-ICN or reverse (did flt 85 in august) theyve had the AVOD in headrest on demand movies/short program, etc, with a long list to choose from.

Dinner is usually BiBimBab (plus soup, salad, desert) or a western choice. Midnite snack (my choice of words, not theirs) which has varied... something like a baked korean char siu bao (if you dont know what im talking about think of it as a small sandwich where the bread totally encloses the meat & sauce), bananas, mini pizza slices... i think there have been oter things over the years...., then breakfast which would be your choice of western, or jook, which is korean rice porridge (think of it as breakfast oatmeal, just made from rice instead)... on diferent flights, i have that offered in either pumpkin or green tea flavor. The green tea one is a little more savory, which i prefer.... the pumpkin is sweet.

oh! and when they come through w/ beverage trays (not talking about the full service cart right now)... the choice is usually water, orange, pineapple, or.... GUAVA juice.

hope that helps!

regarding seats, isnt flt 85 a 747-400?

yes.

and later this year it will turn into a 77W when A380 starts operating KE81/82

Speaking of the 747's. Is there such a thing as the dreaded legroom eating IFE boxes on KE085's?

I'm answering my own question in the hopes that this would be helpful to someone. The 747 I was on this weekend had boxes on seats D, F & H, while E, G & K had none. I didn't get a chance to check out the other side (ABC) looked like.
