I actually liked my antique TG 743 on BKK-HKG in F. Sure, the seat was
only twice as wide as in LH European C and
only offered about 4-5 times the LH legroom and
just 10 times the LH recline. And admittedly, the TG FAs were
only three times as friendly as their LH counterparts. However, on the
positive side, we got a 4 course meal, Dom champagne, and the lavatories offered full-size bottles of various Eau de Colognes. In the end, that made this exhausting
three hour flight almost bearable.
