My first experience with China Eastern Airlines (MU)

I have seen some MU J tickets to Europe for Mar/Apr next year for as little as $5.3k! That is unbeatable. In fact, I scored a J fare with them to Prague for around that time for about $5.7k.

Flew with China Eastern in Business, when they first started out of Melbourne. It was a very interesting flight, as the plane was a wet lease from Shanghai Airlines (If I remember correctly). coughpit door was open most the way to Shanghai. You could stand at the door and watch the pilots, they came and went and had long convo's withe FA's. They even gave use a China Eastern umbrella, which we still have.
We asked for red wine with our meal and got a full bottle of VERY good French red. The lounge at Pudong wasn't very good, but food was amazing.
It was one of life's great experiences.
