Thanks for the mini TR, very interesting. Just a few points:

- Was the FFP only added during OLCI/manual check-in (not at the ticketing/MMB stage)?
- Golden/blue BPs thing depends on class only, but sometimes they are lazy/forgetful to take one stock out of the printer and put the other one. Same with other Chinese airlines (some ports in China have a separate BP stock for élite cards in Y, or a generic VIP BP for J/Gold/Plat). Does not make much difference, except that where Gold in Y is not allowed to access fast track, they can do so when they have the golden BP;
- Typically they place water/newspaper/blankets/pillow and sometimes greet you, but seemingly all this is provided on long haul anyway (I have only flown short haul on MF), so it's inconsistent. 3U and CX in comparison greeted me 100% of the times;
-That hotel looks worse than the random one I chose and paid 90RMB for recently, but if there is a chance to chat with MF crew during breakfast, that sounds interesting (we are avgeeks here after all)
