Upcoming NW F Class flight
Hey folks, I'll be flying on the 29th of Feb from MSP to CUN in First on NW in a 753 and back on the 8th of March in First as well on a 753. What type of service is to be awaited. I'm guessing this is marketed as International First Class
How will the service be? Thanks!

Sorry to disappoint, but I don't believe this will be anything more than the standard domestic F offerings of NW. Still, it beats the heading south of the border in the back of the plane!

It will be domestic F service. A couple of bottles of cheap sparkling wine used to be catered on these flights, but not sure that's happening these days.
I didn't realize that the 753's were making Mexico runs - usually A320 service.

for dinner or lunch, scroll down to 119 and 118 respectively, and expect maybe something like this http://www.airlinemeals.net/meals/Northwest101120.html. The pics are a bit old, so YMMV. . . .
But maybe you can get some salsa on your omelette or stick a 2 oz Cholula hot sauce http://cholulastore.com/detail.aspx?ID=2 in with your toiletries and argue it is needed medicine.

No
Northwest treats all flights from the lower 48 to Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean as domestic FC. That means free upgrades for elites ^ but no special catering

If you snoop around and find the recent Indepth C Class TR;s wrote on Korean Air, does it warrant me writing a TR on MSP-CUN-MSP F experience on NW>??? IS it worth the time or effort?
