the flowers were collected and disposed of upon arrival into JFK due to quarantine reason; therefore there was none on the way back.

But I've had them when leaving JFK. Was that just a fluke? They look sort of silly sitting there empty.

I noticed that too on my recent CX841 flight to HKG, vases empty in J seat I'm sitting. Didn't bother to check all vases, but figured it must be due to some quarantine reason. USA takes undeclared plants very seriously. Due to history of "foreign invasions" that destroys indigenous wildlife.

If you don't want to answer, you don't have to.

Err Hello if you recall she also has a damm good sense of humour which made it all the more fun to ask her which way the wind was blowing and what colour socks she was wearing

I haven't seen flowers in the vases on YVR/SFO-HKG v.v. flights in the past month or two. Now you guys have me curious, I'll have to ask why next time...

So no more 77Gs for CX?

No, they've ordered a mix of 77Gs and 77Hs.

6xB777-300ER(2x77G & 4x77H)(B-KQG/H/I/J/K/L) will enter service in 2013

Just because someone is thick skinned and doesn't take insult doesn't make insulting others okay. Why do you feel the need to insult so many people on this forum? If you don't like what they say/ask then fine, but nobody is forcing you to answer.

I'm fairly certain it's humor and color.

Depends if you were educated with the Oxford English dictionary or the .......ised version http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/colour

Ugly color though.

How will I know if I'm in refurb or old F?

I think once the discussion reaches this point it should end!

What's next "theatre" vs. "theater" or "lift" vs. "elevator"... I think this thread is going off into a wrong direction...

Has anyone had any experience with the new touch pad control? What's the response like? Any problems or glitches? Also they mentioned improvements to the reading light, it is suppose to cast less shadow... any experience with such?

Thank you,

PedroNY

I thought that I read previously that the refreshed planes are being retrofitted in China, but I see that we have a 77W on it's way from PAE to HKG. Could this be a new plane? Using multiple tools, I can't find it's reg.

Where'd you get that info? Just curious!

A nasty "baby diarrhoea" brown Shanghai Tang PJs to JFK last week, not yet tried the new PYE ones.

I am sure someone's already asked this, but how many different colours of the ST ones? I have navy/burgundy/dark brown and light brown sets. What else is there?
