Boeing 777-200 Domestic (P&W engined - welcome back...?)
13:45 depature (sked 12:50), Lunch
Choice of ravioli or chicken katsu.
Katsu was tasty (and real chicken) - the rice ball accoutremant was awesome - surprisingly, one of the tastiest items I've had in a long time on UA. Given that, wish the Katsu was plated with something other than plain white rice - some noodles maybe? Just a little variety, but this is a minor nitpick. The rice balls are a home run -- they really should do that one on the mainland. Easy, cheap, tasty.
Room temperature nuts in a bag, and a wholly unappealing, ice cold roll in a bag. I'm guessing the jelly packet is the new fruit bowl?
Generic chocolate cookie in a bag. Served a cold brownie in a bag later in the flight. (Sense a theme?)
Excellent service. Zero complaints there whatsoever.
Flight review - 777-222A is back. Might have been the smoothest flight I've had in years - I mean, not one bump the entire flight. Suspiciously smooth, as if United built a sky track. Remembered why I never liked the IPTE seats....
