Unlike the A320neo, this aircraft is configured with IFE screen entertainment for every seat and lie-flat bed for the business class cabin and this product is familar to me as I had experienced it before with Copa Airlines and that flight was also a long flight for a narrow-body, about 23 minutes longer than this flight (5 hours 37 mins).

The Captain made his announcement and gave us update on the weather on route and for the announcments by the cabin crew, it was done in 5 languages including the Taiwanese dialect. Take off was slightly turbulent but eventually the weather improved after flying out of Japan. This is the second cabin of the economy class.

My cabin luggage was able to fit in but it is better to have the handle of the baggage facing you to optimise space. My in-flight experience We boarded with the cabin crew welcoming us. Anyway I find it strange that even though the safety video was played, the crew still did a manual safety demonstration, that's a first for me.

My aircraft, VT-YAK had a long layover at this airport as the previous flight took place the day before so therefore a set of crew was needed to be transported to the aircraft. After getting up from my seat, I followed the cabin crew who led me to my new assigned seat and to my relief it was a window seat. I can only speculate.

About 40 minutes on the aircraft, we were finally on our way, no updates from the Captain until later part of the flight. The turbulence was not as bad as what I was anticipating and for most parts of the flight, it was smooth. Off we go, fortunately it wasn't turbulent. Below) We were on final approach to runway 27L.

This was my flight's final assigned gate. I spotted another green stripes livery on this A330-900neo on final approach to this airport. Once on board, I noticed a cabin crew was serving champagne on a plastic cup and was pleasantly surprised I was given one, I suppose because of the occasion (New Year's Day).

My in-flight Experience After boarding the aircraft, the purser standing near the door gave me a half hearted smile and one of the cabin crew (let's call her A) was loud, instructing the passengers like how a school teacher deals with his/her students. On my next flight, the nice crew asked whether do I want the can.

The cabin crew were waiting for us. However, he mentioned that there was turbulence along the way, not a surprise especially June to October period is usually the typhoon season and bad weather is quite common. We hit some turbulence while flying through some clouds. Time to board Starlux's Airbus A350-900!

After take off, the ride was generally smooth but there was turbulence from time to time but the worst was flying over Bay of Bengal near India. The reason is that the nice cabin crew offered to move my seat mate which she accepted to the front so that she could get off as soon as she can to catch her connecting flight.

Look at the cabin ambiance, I am a definitely a fan of these colours. A starlux cabin crew was preparing the flight for departure. I should be able to do a video call but if there is turbulence, I won’t be surprised if my phone “fly". We forgot to ask the crew about it. The view from my seat.

Since these aircraft were already installed with Aeroflot's cabin interior and configuration, the Indian airline decided to make some minor changes and that also means the airline didn't have to wait long to take delivery of the 6 aircraft. With a light load in this cabin, I went to explore some of the seats.
