Homesick,

It wasn't so good when they started it up again, using a Boeing 767. In fact, it was described on some forums as a shambles. But I believe they now have a couple of A310's leased-in for their longer haul ops (LGW and BKK), one of which is an ex- CSA aircraft and the other ex-Portuguese. (??? I stand to be corrected).

I would concur with the comments above about the service being old fashioned (kind of in a way that Air-India J class is), where it's all about the people serving rather than the fancy hardware or IFE. A bit nostalgic perhaps. LOL. I haven't personally done the route myself but have a colleague who does it regularly and as you can imagine, we often compare notes.

Have a good one and let us know how it goes!!
