Proper Champagne, finally!

Great TR!

Excellent TS, Sir StarG. Thanks for taking us along on the journey with you.

[Nick C]

Thanks for posting the inaugural TR so quickly.

[StarG]

Really looking forward to this!

It was something I had looked forward to. With the Brazil government's late approval for sales ex-GRU etc, I had a small doubt that the launch can be on schedule.

Enjoy sir StarG!

Boa Viagem com Ganso de Ouro para São Paulo!

Don't understand that - yet, but thanks Ms. SQfg!

Very nice - thanks for sharing! I love reading about inaugurals. Look forward to more!

Thanks KeithMEL.
You might have to settle with just the pictures and some comments.
Unless MAN Flyer comes up with his inaugural TR.

Look forward to the GRU pics, and the MAN Flyer report!

MAN Flyer needs more persuasion in exploring the literary side of himself!

Ah, so the latest CGK turnaround was a success on the Dom consumption target?

No comment.

[StarG]

What a fantastic experience! Thanks for sharing.

My pleasure.

Is that TAMs onboard uniform?

Maybe their next one!

Hooray! An Inaugural TR so quick.

So where's MAN Flyer's?

Thanks for viewing!
You'd have to join the mob asking for that one.

Excellent inaugural TR!! Cheers!

Xie xie.

I spy a IPAD2

Got quite a few comments from many of the cabin crew. Even those just passing through.
IPad is hugely popular among them it seems - many of them uses one.
I *think* I might have persuaded MAN Flyer to get out of the cave and get one too.

I spy the arm of MAN Flyer?

Great TR!

Thanks!
You seem to know MAN Flyer's arm very well!

Thanks for posting! Great TR.

Wish I could have been on flight

Yeah it would have been more fun with you onboard.
And SQTalk members would have a TR they more deserve!

[StarG]

Excellent TS, Sir StarG. Thanks for taking us along on the journey with you.

Merci, Sir jjpb3.
Wish you could be along on the flight - would have been so awesome for us to travel together on the inaugural!

Thanks for posting the inaugural TR so quickly.

My pleasure Sir. Thanks for viewing.

[SilverChris]

Fantastic, was hoping for this. Excellent report

Edit: Couldn't finish reading it. Could only get more and more envious
