Gate area had appetizers of fresh sushi, sashimi, uni with caviar, and roasted shrimp and beef; towards the end, the chefs were making custom hand rolls with the excess ingredients.



Was told that it was ~27 in J (probably had one more hop on in J before the door shut), including employees using their travel benefit, and ~85 in Y (with a couple of employees already seated in MCE). Loaded up very quickly, left 10 minutes early. Had one employee not make it into J, so opted to deplane and skip the trip.

Also note worth was that the flight was operated by N812AA/8AN, the newest 788 in the fleet. Was told this was the 3rd revenue flight for this airframe. Love that new plane smell.
