Is that new?
You normally only get the Verve Cliquot on the ground in the UK. There were two bottles catered, and wanted everyone to enjoy it before take off. Only regular Dom listed on the menu. edit: fingers crossed if my next leg has any P2 left. :p |
DXB-ICN
Dom, but no P2.

2005 Palmer is in the DXB lounges because it’s now being served on board (new addition from the last few days). It’s fantastic — although could probably use a decanter and another 20 years — no joke — and to have this served is just testament to how EK treats F. I don’t recall something of this level being served. 👍🏻

I found the 2005 Chateau Palmer in a lounge this past Saturday. The bottle was already opened, but the server said it wasn't in good shape and opened a new one for us, telling us it was the last bottle. It was an excellent wine at 6 a.m. 😎
A few days ago, unfortunately, 2005 Palmer wasn't available in the A/B lounges, but it was on the flight to JFK. |
Didn't expect P2 to still be around, but I see it on the wine list for my JFK-DXB tonight.
Looking forward to trying the Chateau Palmer as well |

P2 listed on the online list for recent flight to UK but not offered onboard. Not the end of the world as the 2015 is very nice, but was looking forward to mixing it up.

Anyone visit the DXB First Class lounge recently? What wines were available?

Looks like P2 is still making the rounds even when it’s not listed on the online or onboard menus
Some data points over the last week: Was listed and available on my JFK-DXB last week Was not listed and didn’t inquire for my DXB-LHR on Monday as I slept the whole flight Was not listed but was available and proactively offered on my MXP-JFK today |
Im delighted to find that my sectors next month to and from MXP have been upgraded to receive the Mouton 04 instead of Palmer 05. Any datapoints on how many bottles they load onto each flight? The plan is to drink it dry!

Amazing. Seems to be starting this month as I see it on my DXB-LHR in a couple of weeks (but not my flight next week). It’s at least a couple per sector on the A380 in my experience, not sure if the 777 perhaps only gets one bottle each way, though.
