In Y, but as a BA Gold (OWE). I got so much personal attention from the crew it was actually embarassing. And as a veggie, with SPML distributed first but no other SPML passengers anywhere around me, everyone seemed to think this was another 'perk' I was getting. [Sadly CX seem to have very good CRM systems, and no flight since has had the same level of 'welcome'.] Probably first time flying Cathay. In Y, but as a BA Gold (OWE).

The route had been launched just three days before, and the load factor was still very low - something around 20%. I had a block of two seats to myself on the A340, which was perfect for eventually curling up against the window and getting some sleep. But before I headed off to Dreamland, I spent some time in the galley, chatting with a very pretty and very friendly Kiwi flight attendant, who ended up sneaking me glass after glass of champagne from First Class after I had returned to my seat. I can't remember how many times she passed by, but I do remember arriving in China slightly worse for wear! My best ever Economy flight was an Emirates flight DXB-PVG back in 2004.

The FA took care of our little one while we settled in and then even took our baby back half way through the flight so that we could get some rest. After about an hour or so we became nervous and went back to the galley to find our girl playing on a big blanket and merrily eating cheese and crackers with the FA! Emirates also gave our little one a back pack, special kids meals and a stuffed toy!

The flight attendants were super nice, addressed my kids as Princess and Spiderman, and kept them totally stocked up with juice and snacks. The kids both got wings and got to meet the pilots and see the cockpit when we landed. Made for a fun and relaxing flight for me and the kids even though we were flying coach.
