Surprise: The crew realised I would be landing on my birthday, and they had a cheese cake with Happy Birthday written on it, presented it in my seat and (quietly!) sang "Happy Birthday" - a wonderful way to start a celebration, and a delightful touch from an exceptional and caring crew.

Drink: Moet & Chandon Dom Perignon 1996 Champagne
Palliser Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2002 Martinborough, New Zealand

Comments: Delightful from start to finish - some of the best service in the air! Somewhat retro seats, but still extremely comfortable and spacious. US and even some Asian airlines should take lessons on how to deliver a quality service with flair and elegance.

Contents of the meal: Beef Strips with carrots, bocroli and rice. Sushi,
udon noodles, strawberry cheesecake and an after dinner mint.
Drink: Green Tea and a Kumeu River Merlot
Comments: Very good and very tasty. The beef was well cooked, spicy and tender. The vegetables were very tasty. The sushi and udon noodles were surprisingly good, and the cheesecake for dessert was excellent. Exactly the same meal as my flight to Japan last year. An excellent wine too. Also not the metal cultery. This just rounds the meal off!
