NYC Spring 2014 via EVA (Part XIV)
6 June 2014
BR225
TPE-SIN
Gate C5, Terminal 2
Aircraft 77W
Registration B16717
STD 0740H (GMT+8)
ATD 0801H (GMT+8)
STA 1200H (GMT+8)
ATA 1155H (GMT+8)
Seat 9K
Royal Laurel class
Found that we will be flying back to SIN using the very same plane that flew us from JFK earlier. Chose a different seat - In the second J cabin behind the main one. This cabin was slightly smaller, but I didn't find it noticeably more cozy or private.
Breakfast Meals
Taiwanese Plain Porridge serve with Braised Bean Curd Stuffed with Minced Pork, Baby Cabbage with Ginkgo Nuts and Wolfberry
Chive Omelette with Pan Fried Chicken Sausage
Stewed Beef Shank with Noodle Soup, and Traditional Cold Delicatessens
Widely-recommended beef noodles. Decent, definitely not earth-shattering, but comforting to my Asian tongue at 35000 feet.
By this time, I was already exhausted from the trip, and not really looking forward to going back to work - I couldn't remember what I did during the 4-hour journey.
Spent 20 hours of my life in this particular metal.
And here concludes my NYC trip report, flying with EVA, the newest member of Star Alliance.
Summary:
- Rimowa box was bigger than expected.
- Seat was comfortable to lounge in. Sleeping-wise, fairly decent - Inability to sleep well was my inherent problem.
- Service was variable, at the worst it was pleasantly polite, at best it was almost SQ-quality. Generally not as polished and proactive as I'll like it to be, but I am happy enough. (I love the Taiwanese mandarin, by the way..)
- NYC is a really mixed-bag city!
Please leave behind your comments and feedbacks, this being my virgin trip report. For starters, I think I should scale down the photos..
Thanks for reading!
Afterwords
Initially wanted to post this last installment on Sept 11, as a tribute to the catastrophe 13 years ago, but I procrastinated..
Never forget!
With the worsening conflicts around the world and we are heading down to yet another show-down of ideologies and powers and arms, I could only pray for world peace..
