Anyone done the BCN-GRU flight?

In true FlyerTalk form, instead of taking a simple CDG-JFK flight, i've instead routed it CDG-BCN-GRU-EZE-SCL-JFK. One of the benefits of this is 12 hours in SQ F. Any reviews, comments, trip reports on the service on this sector? I haven't been able to turn much up for F, just a J report.

Paid AF Y CDG-BCN, SQ F saver BCN-GRU, Paid QR J GRU-EZE, Paid AC J EZE-SCL, LA J award with BA Avios SCL-JFK. Should be a fun trip, why get where you're going in 7 hours when you can drag it out over 8-10 days?

Nice set of flights and some exotic routes. Well done!

I recently flew lim-JFK on la in j. All seats taken crowded cabin. Slept well on their lie flat seats. Breakfast is mediocre - a stop at any NYC diner gives you a much better refueling.

If will be my first LA J flight (have heard nothing but good things), first time in SCL and my first SQ F on the 77W having only previously flown SQ F on the 744. It MAY be my first QR J flight as well unless I go ahead with a proposed August itinerary CDG-DOH-GYD-TBS-IST-BEY-CAI-ZRH-CDG.

The SQ flight is a 9:40 departure, so I assume there is post-departure breakfast then a proper lunch/dinner service later in the flight?
