Overall Flight Experience

As we are traveling as a couple, regrettably MAS staff didnt have the initiative to seat us together, placing a stranger between us. Luckily the guy was kind to switch seats.

This is our first business class flight on MAS, but I did not check seat configuration as Etihad Airways business class normally is 1-2-1 with ample privacy (Thinking it should be the same, oh well how wrong was I).

2-3-2 seating & 18″ width is more like Premium Economy with lie flat bed instead of Business Class. Air Stewardess service were moderate but quite rush in getting things done.

Food taste great, portion is sufficient & quality is good. Only downside the Cod doesnt look appetizing, however it taste well.

Lastly, the seat requires an extension fixed to become lie flat bed which the air stewardess didnt inform every guest, (we have to asked them what was the extra cushion for), therefore 70% of guest didnt fix it hence they should be sleeping slight uncomfortably.

Conclusion, I would try avoid this taking Business Class on this particular flight in future until the seats are refurbished.  Instead I would prefer taking Malaysia Airlines A380 Business Class to London or Paris. Happy Flying!
