Thank you for another excellent report on Thailand and on one of my favorite airlines, Cathay Pacific.

I agree with you concerning redeye flights to Asia. It was pretty bad if you could not sleep. Service was minimal even in SQ. One CX F/A had to be on duty at each cabin class. They usually read magazines at their crew seat and were very alert to the F/A calling button. However, they did not walk around much. However, the a la carte dining looked much better than UAL regular meal service. If you are taking a regular daytime flight on your way back, you will enjoy the regular full dinner service with caviar and salmon carved in front of you... used to have rack of lamb, too.

Personally, CX First and Business are pretty good. I think it may be a bit too early in the morning. I guess the food selection simply beats United RCC... They suppose to have more meal service and a spa.
