--------------------
Y was only half full. In-flight service was BEYOND OUTSTANDING, one of the very best post COVID. All ranks of cabin crew proactively offered multiple rounds of drinks and snacks (yes even saw ISM in Y cabin).
The only short-coming was the mid-flight meal service, which interrupted rest period of passengers. But crew explained passengers often felt hungry by middle of the flight, and indeed many instant noodles were served before the second meal service.
