Any thoughts from experienced shooters? I'll be in Singapore/HK/Tokyo/Seoul. The other reason for a faster prime is for some in cabin shots on the plane without having to crank my ISO.

Thanks!
I do not have a full frame Sony (only have a Sony APS-C model) but I would agree...Crank that ISO. Full frame camera at f2.8 will be just fine for cabin shots. Even at 6400 ISO you will get great results with the A7RII.

When travelling I would take any zoom lens over any prime.
Depending on what you are planning to shoot I would take a wide zoom i.e (Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Lens) and/or a tele zoom (Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 G OSS Lens).
