This is an older plane, and not comfortable to fly on long flights. The seat only reclines about 90 degrees, making it difficult to sleep on an over night flight, which this one is.
They use tables for entertainment. My first choice movie would not play, so I was given another tablet. Same problem. My second choice movie, suddenly froze about half way through, and would not play beyond that point, even with a device restart.
The food is served in ceramic dishes, however they are portion divided as they are in coach. The whole food service in terms of presentation, quality and service is poor, really not up to International standards.
I cannot recommend this plane. However the price is very good, so it maybe a decent choice versus flying coach on a competitor.
Lounge in Ho Chi Ming, is very jaded.
