For the 2nd flight, I thought the crew handled quite well especially it was a turbulent flight and I find the service on both flights quite pleasant. I like the cabin interior and the service was not bad, I was glad the cabin crew didn't forget my pre-ordered snack and beverage after I shifted to a new seat.

The tail livery is certainly very attractive. Looking at the skies, it was a complete opposite from my arrival, the skies were filled with clouds with some angry ones from the distance, I was expecting some turbulence on this flight. By then the aircraft started its descent when the cabin crew were released from their seats.

After take-off, there was a bit of turbulence during climb especially flying through some clouds. Once that was cleared, the cabin crew were released for duty. Like my previous flights, a set of crew would come around with a camera offering complimentary polaroid photos for the passengers and not surprisingly, they went past me.

Unlike the A320neo, this aircraft is configured with IFE screen entertainment for every seat and lie-flat bed for the business class cabin and this product is familar to me as I had experienced it before with Copa Airlines and that flight was also a long flight for a narrow-body, about 23 minutes longer than this flight (5 hours 37 mins).
