I flew BKK NRT on A380 in F two days ago, and received Rimowa kit and slippers, no caviar, no PJs, but was offered a pre-arrival meal.

It was the 7:30am departure. It is my understanding that NRT is not considered long haul as it is only just under 6 hours. They only serve caviar on what they class as long haul routes, such as to Europe, Australia (they served caviar on the Sydney route until recently when they dropped F on the Oz routes).

Interestingly, on JALs NRT-CGK flight in first, the 7:30 block time is not considered long haul either! Can anyone think of an intra-asia flight that serves caviar?

im flying BKK-HND next month which sees return of First class service with Boeing 747 replacing the B787. This is a redeye 2315 from BKK. Looks like I can likely expect pyjamas, perhaps a snack after takeoff and breakfast before landing?

Recent reports show the Thai set menu as containing quite a bit of food. I haven't seen a report specifically mention this option on a red-eye, so I don't know if they adjust the quantity based on meal time.

Be sure to report back so we will all know.

Clarification. You were served only one meal on the this flight or two (breakfast and pre-arrival)? Also do they serve the standard long haul wines / champaign or is there a different list for this flight?

I think it's been a few years since Thai had a different Regional F champagne, it's just Dom all round these days
