韓國旅遊所攝(5)－歸程飛機

We went back to HKG on CX 419. It was a codeshare flight with BA.
It's a B777-200 with 3-3-3 seats (did they receive a seat rearrangement?) and I sat at seat 64A.
It departed at dusk and arrived at night, thus no outside photos could be taken.
It was a bit bumpy soon after take-off and drink delivery had to be stopped for some time.
The meal was...acceptable, except that the bread was as hard as a "French rod".
We saw some dense "light spots" when we were above East China Sea
where there should be no land around. I suspect them to be fishing boats.
When we were above Taiwan, I could see the lights of Taichung clearly.
The plane attained a maximum altitude of 40000 feet for most of its journey,
which is the highest I have ever experienced.
Entering Hong Kong SAR, almost all lights were switched off
for passengers to have a great view of the city. It was good except for some clouds.
After touchdown, the aircraft swang left and right for some time. Was it 風切變?
We parked at gate 31 and had to walk a long way!

This ias the end of the Korea transport series. Thanks for watching!
