[First Class] Garuda Indonesia Amsterdam-Jakarta 5335
I know this isn't what we would typically consider to be a "smokin' deal," but I was very pleasantly surprised to find this reasonable price for AMS-CGK-AMS in what is arguably the most over-the-top F product currently in the sky.
No min stay, seems to be good through EOS.

Etihad's "Residence" product is in a class of its own, way above traditional "F." Did you peruse the attached Garuda F trip report? Given what's presented there, and in a separate trip report on Airliners.Net, I would posture that Garuda F blows Etihad F out of the water.

Emirates A380 hard product appears to have similar but slightly larger seats. (I was able to put a rollerboard AND my large computer bag at my feet.) And the very soft leather you expect from the top notch carriers.
But the trip report of the ground service blows me away.
Better than Lufthansa FCT with its separate terminal experience and a ride to the plane... maybe.
Better than Thai airways buggy ride to the FC lounge and 1 hour massage and great service... maybe.
It is an argument I would love to have with myself again and again and again as I experience each several times in the future!
