Score! That looks like an amazing trip

I admit that I am an unsophisticated hick from Vermont. I'll go ahead and ask the question anyway and show my true self.

Whenever I've eaten caviar (yes caviar, not trout eggs even though I am in VT) I have been served the toast points, crackers, lemon, egg, etc. but I have never received the little bag that shows up in almost all first class trip report photos of caviar service.

(Yes, I have also never flown first class on any international flight. The best I can do is Business Elite to Milan from JFK. I am a failure and shouldn't show my face on FlyerTalk!)

If your question was what 's in the bag, I think you mean the half lemon packed in a small bag so the juice can be squeezed without the stones falling in your plate. But not sure exactly what you meant...

Don't worry your time in First will come MichaelS! Our first ever RTW (Round the World) was 11 legs in Business, then for the second one we had 1/2 business and 1/2 First and the last one was mostly First (8 of 9 legs in First).

Thanks JamesBond_ppk,

This was my favorite flight of all time and it beats Swiss and Thai's Cabins.

Yes, that is what I was asking about. I guess I eat at the wrong places because on the few ocassions I get caviar, the lemons are sliced and never in a bag. Nice idea though and it makes sense in an airplane where there is oess room for mess adn to prepare food.

I need to move up in the world!
