KLM’s Royal Class was one of the finest First Class services aloft. Witness this flying feast between Amsterdam and Jakarta. I know there are some who think ol’ Seat 2A is a bit daft for being so focused on inflight food but hey – when you’re stuck on an airplane for twenty hours (or even six) food is a great diversion. Bon Apetite!
