Henriot or similar?


Is the champagne served on the new 777 lie flat seats and different than other long haul flights? ex. ATL-DXB, ATL-ICN
I'm not sure how long it has been since you flew "premium" on any US carrier but by the question I think you are in for a shock. FC (Dom and Int) used to be a spectacular treat...not so much now. The best Champagne I have had was the ONE TIME I was lucky enough to Fly up front on SQ (I know, SQ is not what it once was either and there are several better now) was the last time I felt like I was in a truly premium cabin. They DO have Dom!
