[@TripReportaviation]

Nice trip report. Did you feel hungry after the flight? 2 meals for a 15 hour flight didn't seem to be enough for me... Btw, egg tart was more than good for snack

[@JGTravels]

Thanks. 2 meals on a 15-hour flight was not enough. I really feel hungry in between. Egg tart was one of my favorite inflight snack.

[@JumisVisuals]

Thats a long flight ! The longest i have done is 14 hours from London to Manila . New york looks great with all the lights in the dark !

[@JGTravels]

Yeah, this was a long flight. I have already gotten used to flying long-haul flights with some heavy turbulence along the way. Thanks!

[@harrygladwell4661]

Looks like Cathay's inflight service is improving

[@JGTravels]

[@ianwilde5379]

None of the food looked very appealing but I'm sure it tasted okay if it's Cachay Pacific!

[@JGTravels]

Yes it tasted good on this flight! Maybe I was just starving a bit.

[@benedictthomasville6156]

Boarding was absolutely a big chaos!

[@JGTravels]

it was a disaster boarding process

[@davdmoi]

I can imagine. Is like running for their life.

[@JGTravels]

@@davdmoi exactly! Cathay should implement proper boarding to avoid chaos on the boarding gates.

[@davdmoi]

@@JGTravels As some of us aware that you are dealing with a group of individuals who which less educated and don’t follow the rules as most modern people. Everything with them is first and fast. Is almost like running from communist.

[@duaneowens7777]

[@JGTravels]

Yes I had a check in luggage. Just follow your baggage allowance on your booked ticket
