      Hey there, actually there are a lot of choices of coffee creamers and sugar/sweeteners. Satchets is are no problem for me since they are quite efficient and economical especially with the weight it saves to the aircraft. 😊

    The meal portions on this flight leaves something to be desired.
    The first entree dish Pork Kare Kare falls short of filling out the plate. It looks very spare on the plate.
    The second meal entree Corn Beef Adobo is downright embarrassing coming in a small bowl.
    This wouldn't seem so if it were an appetizer, but as an entree, it looks skimpy in the portions.
    I've noticed this trend in past Philippine Airlines postings in business class, but not until this flight did I feel compelled to comment on their skimpy portions.
    I advise PAL to check their neighboring competitors such as Taiwan's EVA Air and China Airlines and also Korean Air when it comes to their plating and food portions in business class.
    Customers are not fools, they know when the airline is being generous or stingy

    NAIA Terminal 1 is definitely not fit for purpose, just like it was in 1999. Someone need to wake up.

    • @CaptEngrWil
      @CaptEngrWil  9 місяців тому

      Yeah. I noticed how they lack more seats at some point of the terminal. Terminal 3 is the better option because it is bigger, but I think PAL opted Terminal 1 because their domestic terminal, Terminal 2, is nearer than Terminal 3 for their transfer passengers from international to domestic. Hopefully MIAA may consider decongesting Terminal 1 more and transfer them to the bigger Terminal 3 and let PAL solo the Terminal 1 IMO.

    • @andrewabel3927
      @andrewabel3927 9 місяців тому

      Terminal 3 has now reached overcapacity and is also not fit for purpose. Let us face the facts the various Philippine administrations have walked away from the issue of a fit for purpose airport for Manila. It has to be said that NAIA is the worst airport of any major city certainly in Asia and probably the world, excluding Africa.@@CaptEngrWil

    • @CaptEngrWil
      @CaptEngrWil  8 місяців тому

      I think one of the reasons why they let CebuPac retain their domestic operations at T3 is because they will overcrowd T2 given that they operate more domestic flights. Another is that, MIAA is looking to expand T2 with the former Philippine Village Hotel as the portion of the land to consider for the expansion. Thus, this will accomodate Cebu Pacific's domestic flights as well. Hopefully if this expansion is completed, this will improve T3 and be fully international only terminal flights like T1.

    🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 It would be pretty brutal to take this ultra long haul flight in steerage 😬 (economy) class! The portion of the Kare Kare appeared so small and it looked like there was a lot of fat instead of lean pork meat. I would be a very unhappy biz class passenger if they served this to me. I hope the Kare Kare tasted good though.

    • @CaptEngrWil
      @CaptEngrWil  9 місяців тому +2

      I had a pleasant economy class experience with this PAL A350 than Singapore airlines 777.
      This A350 has way more comfortable seats and slight spacious than 777, and most of all, way quieter.
      Oddly enough, SINGAPORE's 777 is the one that's brutal.

      I am glad you had a nice flight with the A350’s ultra-long haul flight. My favorite airline is Singapore Airlines especially their B777-300ERs. But having said that, my most uncomfortable long-haul flight was on an old Boeing 747-400 in the mid 2000’s. The flight originated from Singapore with a refueling stop in Hong Kong.
      The flight from Hong Kong to San Francisco was about 12-13 hours long and we sat on worn out, very hard economy seats at the back of the old B747-400. My bottom was so sore from sitting on those hard seats. My wife and I moved to the other empty seats but all of the seats were equally hard. My back was in so much pain during that long flight. I felt that that flight was brutal.
      The quietest airplane I have flown on was the Airbus A380 from San Francisco to Frankfurt, Germany and back. I was surprised when I noticed that we were already taking off but the cabin was so quiet. (Please watch my humble UA-cam video of this flight, thank you.)

      Yeah, Airbus A350 is indeed a fine aircraft, and I was fortunate to try them both ways. I haven't tried the Boeing B777 but I saw with PAL that the A350 Business Class was indeed better than their B777 Business class setup.

      Can be as well since additional wiring provisions would be considered for this. Another main reason is that it may require more fuel since it will share from the engine to power these power outlets inside the fuselage. Hence, to save fuel consumption, they lessened power outlets.
