After spending a few very busy days in the 'Jing, I flew from Beijing to Shanghai to finish our meetings in China - and I have to say, it was a pretty good flight too! I had never flown Air China before and was rather impressed - in Domestic FC anyway! :-)
After drinking some 'unusual' but passable red wine in the lounge, we boarded the 737-800 to Shanghai-Hongqiao Airport, however, much to my distress, there was not a Champagne in sight as a pre-departure drink! Damn! However, the service during the 2 hour flight was great! For the entree, we devoured a fresh crisp (almost frozen) salad, good garlic bread and some nuts, and the red wine was back!
The main meal was surprisingly good - a combination of delicious beef in 'Chinese' sauce and prawns that were plump and tasty! Of course, more red wine was on the menu! Well done Air China - the service was fantastic from the crew, I arrived in Shanghai rather happy!
