It's a shame that Omnitsky's can't produce a better airline meal. as I recall, their house-made sausages/hot-dogs were quite decent.

Agreed. I found their food pretty good.

+1. Little birdy told me that http://chabadcatering.com/ is negotiating with CX to be their new meal provider.

Anything would be an improvement.
Be sure to send CX feedback.

Modern; nice.

Wasn't there for long, though.

Yes key card, but I just left it open.

You can request and get a lower floor.

I believe you have to keep the sliding doors to the porch closed or else the ac turns off (unless you override?)
