Hi!! I wasn't going to post one of these but I have to because I listen to so much whining and complaining that I was kind of expecting nasty food, plasticware , broken seats and IFE malfuctions.
I sat in Envoy in 2H and the new seat was very comfy!! I felt like we were being fed THE WHOLE way. We had the plastic cup for champagne at takeoff but we got real glassware the rest of the way and real silverware too!! I ordered the pan fried steak and expected those flat, thin minute steaks and I was very pleasantly surprised to get a real steak. It was a small one, but not much smaller than you would get at a gourmet restaurant. It was SOOOOOOOO good. The salad that was an appetizer was amazing, it had olives and feta cheese and a really good dressing. I also had as many cheese rolls as I could eat. Then we had dessert which was some kind of cinnamon chocolate cake tart thing. It was delicious. The wine that was in a real glass was really good too. The IFE worked just fine, and I didnt see that anyone else's malfunctioned either.
Breakfast was really nice, but I dont really like granola or yogurt. I ate it anyway.
On the way back, I got row 1H and the food again was great. I had the feta wrapped in fried zucchini and then the express meal which was some kind of beef with fried zucchini and sliced tomatoes with balsamic vinegar and then a passion fruit tart for dessert. And chocolate muffins!! OMG!! They were so warm and tasty! For lunch we had some kind of burrito, and it was really good as well. Also, the IFE worked fine again!!
Both flights were on time. The flight crew was really sweet, and I didnt personally know all of them so you can't say it's because we were already friends.
I had a wonderful trip and I couldn't really understand what all the evil complaints were. Sure first isn't what it used to be but I was extremely comfortable and happy the whole way.
LOVED IT!! Ready to go again!!
