If only they had taken you on a flight, that would have really topped things off!
Yes the engine cowling being open was a surprise. A flight on this baby is on my bucket list

Thats what I was reading in this months Business Traveller which I read after I came back from the event (Page 14, May edition). I think 3-3-3 will be the norm but a search brought up this. A very spacious ANA Y cabin. I am sure there was also an article in Airline magazine too but that was quite a while back.
Thanks for all the comments folks, appreciated ^^
