I wonder if I’m the only one but I absolutely hate jade melons myself, thankfully the food wasn’t as bad as some CX J food seen recently. And by the time the service was completed, it was 2:30am, time for Zzz…..

As I previously stated, I love these long red-eye flight since you get to sleep and also enjoy the entertainment and also the food in some cases. This flight was a bit odd as I slept over 8 hrs, oops
