Excellent report!

Don't feel bad about the F class seat and $1250 because you actually spent half of your day at JFK. The meal service sounds excellent.

Vince Vaughn WOW... Why don't I see any of those cute actors on my flight?

About the situation of the CX flight, I was actually a bit surprised. Usually the CX flight came into SFO at about late evening hours and have three to four hours before heading back home. CX also seems to have some A340s at its HK base.

Anyway, thanks for an interesting report!
