Boarding in progress and very efficient. Again, it was a fairly full flight on this red-eye.




View out the window.




Pillow, blanket and headsets. One feedback that I have was that the blanket seemed too short for me.




Doors closed and the 90s era safety video was shown.




Starting the taxi to the runway.




It would be a 7hrs red-eye tonight.




We had a very powerful takeoff from the shorter bay runway Rwy05.

Once seatbelt signs were switched off, the crew came around to distribute bottled water to each passenger.




This was quickly followed by giving out of hot towels. I watched the latest Transformer movie.




Refreshments were served immediately after.




As no menus were offered, the online menu would have to suffice. At a glance, the menu for the flight did not looked too appetising, but boy was I wrong!




For the late night refreshment, a packet of rice crackers and a bread was offered, which I washed down with a cup of apple juice. This was a sufficient snack prior to bedtime.




After the snack service, I paused my movie and had almost 4 hours of sleep. Surprisingly, I was able to sleep quite well on this flight.

Slept all the way till the cabin lights were turned on and crew came around again with hot towels, signalling the start of breakfast service. Again, breakfast was served exactly 2hrs before arrival. Having seen the online menu, I did not have too high hopes for breakfast, but it actually turned out to be the most delicious inflight breakfast I have ever had on a flight in economy, and probably business too! On the breakfast tray were 2 starters, fruits, yoghurt and a main course.
