About this flight
I flew from Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, to Haneda on ANA Business Class.
Onboard, I spent a comfortable flight in the spacious Business Class seat. The safety instruction video shown on the screen was the Kabuki-themed version that ANA used at the time.
For the in-flight meal, I chose the Western course. As always, ANA’s cuisine was stylish and delicious.
