Just a quick update while sitting on plane in EBB.
Flight from Guangzhou is packed, even in Business class to Mumbai, which I guess is a good sign to keep this route around. The boarding and departure was delayed due to unknown reason.
As plane departs during mid-night there was no mentioned of meal service but instead everyone get a sticker of "Feed Me / DND"
Many of the business class passenger deplane in BOM (from 80% Load Factor down to 50%) and PY is pretty much empty.
On enroute to KGL the plane has to stop at EBB as KGL rejects incoming flight. Passenger origionally onboard for KGL-EBB was invited to deplane.
Nevertheless it's a comfortable ride and I have no problem sleeping despite the interruption at BOM. I will do this again next year if I am going to Kigali again.
