Thanks for your update.
I've always found it ridiculous that they try to serve Evian....I think Evian has an odd, sterile taste to it and I far prefer cheaper bottled waters like Bonaqua or Watsons in HK. As someone said above, it's pretty normal at outports to receive water from that locale. Ex-USA often serve Crystal Geyser in both J and F. One of the last things I could care about is what type of bottled water CX serves, especially since I don't care for the taste! I'd much prefer they cut out Evian and add budget back to alcohol or better food.
