Flew PEK-SYD in C recently on the new configuration..

Seat seemed to be identical to TK's new C class seat.. (very good indeed!)

What was not as good was the food/drink/IFE options..

There were only 2 choices of entree on both the Western and Chinese menus.. and the second choice was the same on each.. Not impressed.

Spirits? Gin, GlenFiddich, Vodka. That's all that was listed...

The IFE looked impressive... but the content was less so...

Still.. a seat that comfortable - and with the nicest quilt I've seen on a plane meant it wasn't a bad flight*... just not up to the standard of other airlines. Can't say I was honeslty expecting anything else. The seat itself was a very nice surprise.

*Packaged as "First Class Only" so they may be using up remaining stock...
