My CX Y experiences in July were fine.
ADL - HKG - bulkhead seat at front of Y but escorted by CSM after take-off to a seat with a shadow (returned to bulkhead for landing), given first choice of meal, asked several times if I needed anything. Food unmemorable which at least means it wasn't disgusting.
HKG - ADL overnight flight, CSM introduction, asked if I needed anything, bulkhead seat again (full flight). Sitting upright in Y overnight means far less snoring disturbance from other pax - who knew?
I may think twice before booking J/F on overnight flights again
Dinner service after take-off, lights off 2.5 hours, lights on 2.5 hours before landing to serve breakfast at 2.30am HKG time :shock: which I didn't eat. My main issues were that the FAs seemed very flurried and tried to do everything in haste which resulted in mistakes and things actually taking longer than if they just slowed down a bit. Also those stupid sloping traytables in the slight V shape - a book on my lap slipped on to the floor, which caused the table to curve, which caused my elegant plastic tumbler filled with white wine to follow the book ...
SQ did it better in Y when I last flew with them but in terms of value for money I don't have any complaints about either of them. It's not like QF gives us an option out of ADL :evil:
