Route: Calgary to Frankfurt, 31 Oct 2004
Ticket price: $1500 CAN (return)
Flight duration: 9 hours
Aircraft type & class: 767 economy
Business or leisure trip: business
Meal type: standard economy meal
Contents of the meal: tossed salad, chicken in some sort of thick sauce, vegetables, bottled water, dinner roll, ice cream for dessert (not pictured)
Drink: choice of soft drinks, juice or wine (at no cost)
Comments: Very mundane meal with little taste. The sauce on the chicken was overly sweet. The chicken was your typical tough processed chicken. One plus was that the vegetables were a bit on the crispy side, which I prefer. Dinner roll was stale. The salad was limp, but had a very good standard Kraft dressing (cucumber I think). Whoever thought that it was a good idea to serve ice cream to passengers trapped in their seats for a nine-hour flight? A good way to cause stomach discomfort and indigestion. The service was generally pleasant, but nothing spectacular. Air Canada FAs usually only have one speed - extra slow.

George W. Bush “world-is-a-safer-place-now” Plastic Knives
Comments: Plastic knives in business class indicate paranoia and are simply silly. Considering the regular (rather blunt) metal airline knives a weapon is outright ludicrous…a fork or the vicious toothpick may do more harm…let alone the ferocious nail clipper or the mass-destructive cork screw. Get a life, Air Canada! Air China, in comparison, does not believe in such humbug: they provided metal knives.

Chicken breast on pasta with courgettes and potatoes, green bean salad, with red peppers and tomato, custard lemon square and a roll
Drink: Spring water and red wine
Comments: Chicken was ok, pasta was overcooked, the potatoes had no taste which matched their lack of colour and texture. The salad was very plain, and the desert very ordinary. The wine was very average. The roll was cold and chewy. If there is anyone from Air Canada reading this, I know an Airbus 340 costs a lot of money, so next time you buy one, please, please ask for a bread warmer. A nice warm bread roll makes such a difference, and while the rolls are warming, you can soften the butter.
