So as a non-F Flyer (yikes ) could I sneak in the question what champagne is served in C? Did I read correctly in a previous post that it is Moet? That would be quite satisfactory on my end. I need to numb my senses on the A330-300 from SIN to BKK. Thanks

Cheers ...

TG serves Moet in the F lounge at BKK.

They were pouring Pommery in C last year.

On a recent flight BKK-SYD they were pouring Bollinger, in abundance! I was very happy, to say the least...

Hic.

Thanks for the info. I will check what is being poured in C (not that any of you F-Flyers care ) and report back. Pommery - well I will survive. Also LVMH but more 'low-scale'. Cheers

I believe it was Pommery in C SIN-BKK a few days ago.

My pre-departure drink request was denied because, 'We are not allowed to serve alcohol on the ground in SIN.' After questioning this (and still unsure if he meant it was SIN rules or TG rules (neither of which I'm inclined to believe) - 5 minutes later I had a glass of champagne as a, '1 time exception.'

Well it was Bolly on my Nov 13th BKK-SYD... I am certain the Champers can be a lottery, just like TG metal!

Either way, I love Pommery and Bolly - win/win!

The only thing that is 100% sure are the questionable eggs for breakfast. In ANY class.

There is no question.

The eggs are horrendous. Even in F.

The serving of eggs is, in fact, a Thai government bird-flu control measure intending to control poultry numbers in Thailand by mandating the cooking of as many eggs as possible, and THAI has pledged to be a sector leader in this regard [if only it was 01 Apr ].

And I agree - never had a good one yet in any class.

I am positive you are having a lend of us TK,but I must say, I've seen very few birds with runny noses in Thailand, so TG is to be congratulated, in fact they should give all their directors a pat on the back, a jar of Vick's vapour rub, and maybe unlimited excess baggage for Christmas.

Since time began, it's been impossible to cook an egg or toast bread "up there", the toasters on the new A380 cost AU$18000 each, and if you leave the eggs in for a second to long in their cooker, they turn green, or the omelette turns to foam rubber. The poor crew, they do the best they can

LOL, best description ever!! Perhaps there is a marketing opportunity for these omelette things as backpacker bed-rolls.....

Spending the Day in AKL, and camping at the Koru Club, where the eggs were just fine at breakfast. The sun is nearly past the yard-arm, and a holiday beverage beckons.....
