Not bad. It's nice you got a meal on an hour long flight. I haven't been back to Asia since 2019. Even though I haven't flown Cathay, it brings back good memories like when I flew Asiana. Thanks!

It's really unfortunate United has incorporated the same lackluster catering into their transpacific flight. The food looks really Ugh ! With the two daily flights departing Taipei only a few hours apart, I really wish United would move one of the flights to the evening. Some travelers like myself would prefer an evening departure to have almost an extra day in Taiwan. Hope United Execs are listening !

Thanks for your comment. The food has been okay but for some reason, the catering for this flight was not that great. I think UA does not have an evening departure is because of UA tries to utilize and take advantage of connecting flights. If you land at night, the selection of flights to other destination is less than if the flight landed in the morning which is why a lot of flights from Asia or South Pacific land.

Thanks Jeff! I definitely recommend going to the Capital Airshow when you get a chance. This airshow was one for the ages totally beyond my expectation. I thought that this airshow being in the evening would not be as good but having it in the late afternoon and twilight made it even better. There was very little gap in between in each demo and just total entertainment for the 4 hours or so.

@@BayAreaTraveler I traveled with my spouse on United from HK to Ft Myers. The itinerary was HK-SF-DC-FM. The first two legs We were put into both middle seat.

@@BBBZ123 It sounds like you purchased the Basic Economy Fare (or from a third party website) which does not allow you to choose seats and the airline will select seats for you. Not necessary the fault of United. That's why I never pick Basic Economy or go through a third party travel site even though airfare maybe substantially cheaper so that I can freely choose which seat.

@@anthonywalsh2164 It's not really the fault of Boeing nor a design issue regarding the 3-4-3 layout but rather the decision of the airlines. Originally, the 777-200 had a 2-5-2 or 3-3-3 seating config. I actually flew in 3-3-3 on EVA AIR back early 2010s. When airlines realized that they could cram another seat into the row to squeeze profitability, then it became a horrible passenger experience in Economy.

Thank you, appreciate you watching the video. Actually prior to the pandemic, at one point SFO had 4 airlines to HKG and they were UA, CX, SQ and HX. (I believe AA and DL may have had flights from LAX or elsewhere but not SFO.) But with the 4 airlines, it was a bloodbath with HX losing out. SQ was my favorite and I took them often between SFO and HKG. However, since the pandemic, SQ for whatever reason has not returned service between these 2 cities. :(
