Not to go OT, but

This summer was my first time doing LAX-HKG in coach (the horror). I forgot to bring my own bottle of water, and politely asked for one mid flight. (I had been greeted earlier). When she returned the FA was walking funny and I could not see water or one of her hands. When she got to my seat she pulled a bottle of water wrapped in napkins from under her skirt! and said "shhh, not enough for everyone" While grateful for the water, I couldn't help but feel as though I was in Bangkok...

I do heard of an FA telling me Diamond members will have seats blocked next to them if possible... not sure.. but i guess is up to the ground member to do the seat assignment. I not sure if they see where is other MPC member while doing seat assignment.

Two for two yesterday, LAX-HKG and HKG-SIN, including "Casey", the gentleman from the safety video on the later flight.
