Post-GCE 'O' Level Examination Holiday in Hong Kong November 2012 ~ Part 4

A very warm welcome to the fourth section of my blog report about my recent post-GCE 'O' Level examination vacation in Hong Kong in November 2012. This will be the final segment of the entire report. Please direct your attention as I explain the journey back towards Hong Kong International Airport and the flight back home towards Singapore.

Part 1 ~ The Journey to Hong Kong International Airport

After an enjoyable six-day post-GCE 'O' Level examination vacation in Hong Kong, it was finally time to head back home to Singapore. On the very morning of Wednesday (14 November), we all woke up relatively late at around 10.30 a.m.. Knowing that there was still some packing to do, we packed up our remaining baggage for the flight back home to Singapore. As soon as all of our baggage was packed, we had a shower and changed up for the flight back home to Singapore.

According to my mum, our flight back home to Singapore would on Cathay Pacific flight CX 635. The flight was scheduled to leave Hong Kong International Airport at 3.15 p.m., then we would arrive in Singapore at 7.10 p.m. later that evening. My dad called the hotel reception to arrange for a hotel porter to come up and assist us with our baggage and to check out of the hotel. The morning view of Hong Kong Island was quite beautiful, which made me grab a few images.

At 11.40 a.m., a hotel finally came up to our hotel room with a large baggage trolley. He then informed us that our baggage would be taken care of in the lobby. We went to our rooms to see if there was anything left behind. After checking our rooms to see that nothing was left behind, we went down to the Club InterContinental Lounge for lunch. As we were in the Club InterContinental Lounge, the food menus were provided for us.

We then had a good look through the food menu. As soon as we were ready to place our lunch orders, I ordered myself a usual plate of spaghetti alla carbonara, while my brother had an omelette with sausages, and my parents shared their meals. Our meals were then delivered to us at 12.25 p.m.. Again, my spaghetti alla carbonara was mouthwatering, though this time, it didn't come with the creamy cheese and shredded cheese.

After finishing our lunch at the Club InterContinental Lounge, it was already 12.50 p.m.. We then paid up our lunch bill and grabbed our baggage to board the hotel limousine to Hong Kong International Airport. Before heading down, I requested the lounge staff at the Club InterContinental to return the umbrella to the main concierge. They obliged to do so, and we went down to the hotel limousine that would take us to Hong Kong International Airport.

Soon enough, at 12.55 p.m., we finally departed from the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong for a 30-minute journey towards Hong Kong International Airport. In summary, staying at the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong was not such a bad idea. I would definitely rank the InterContinental Hotel the second best hotel I have ever stayed at in Hong Kong, after the Kowloon Shangri-La.

After a 30-minute journey from the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong, we finally arrived at Hong Kong International Airport at 1.25 p.m.. While I went to grab a few baggage trolleys, the driver of the limousine helped us to unload our baggage. We thanked the driver for his assistance before he drove back to the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong.

Knowing that nothing had been left behind, we went into the departure hall towards the Cathay Pacific Business Class check-in counter to check in for Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore.

After checking in our bulky baggage and receiving our boarding passes for Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore, the check-in agent informed us that we were invited to sample the Cathay Pacific Business Class Lounge. She then showed us the location on a card, indicating that it was located just next towards Gate No. 1, where our flight would be departing. Before we left, the check-in agent informed us that boarding would commence at 2.45 p.m., half an hour before departure.

With that, we headed to the departures area, in time for a relatively fast and painless security check and through passport control clearance. By 1.50 p.m., we were in the airside. We then decided to head to the Cathay Pacific Business Class Lounge, which was located near Gate No. 1, where Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore would be departing later at 3.15 p.m..

At 1.55 p.m., we finally found the Cathay Pacific Business Class Lounge. It had a lot of major improvements and looked better than the last time we visited it when we came back from Tokyo, Japan back in June 2010. The upper floor of the lounge was under renovation, and I certainly hope it will look as better as before. Once I dropped all of my baggage with my family, I went out to do some plane-spotting.

It's a tradition that my family and I travel to Japan every year. Not travelling to Japan for one year truly disappoints me as it is my most favourite country in this world

Part 2 ~ The Flight Back Home To Singapore

Airline: Cathay Pacific
Flight No.: CX 635
From: Hong Kong International Airport (HKG / VHHH), Hong Kong
To: Singapore Changi Airport (SIN / WSSS), Singapore
Aircraft: Airbus A330-343X
Registration No.: B-HLN
Class: Business Class
Seat No.: 18A
Date: Wednesday, 14 November 2012

After spending approximately 45 minutes of relaxing and having some drinks in the Cathay Pacific First & Business Class Lounge, the clock was finally showing 2.40 p.m.. Knowing that boarding for Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore would commence in a few minutes time, we immediately packed our baggage and left the lounge for Gate No. 1. We had approximately five minutes left before the first boarding calls were made, so I grabbed a few more shots before boarding.

For today's flight, Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore would be operated using an Airbus A330-300, registered B-HLN and powered by two Rolls-Royce Trent 772B-60 engines. B-HLN was delivered new to Cathay Pacific on 23 February 2001 as the 14th Airbus A330-300 and Airbus A330 for the airline. The overall delivery would make the aircraft approximately 11.7 years old today.

After spending just five minutes of anticipated waiting at the passenger waiting area, the first boarding calls for Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 bound for Singapore were finally made at 2.45 p.m.. The Business Class passengers, as well as the Asia Miles and Marco Polo Club members, and the passengers needing special assistance were called to board the aircraft first. We then grabbed hold of our baggage, along with our boarding passes for the boarding process.

As we walked along the jet bridge towards Door A, we were finally on board B-HLN by 2.50 p.m., just in good time for a 3.15 p.m. departure to Singapore. We then stowed all of our baggage and settled into our seats for the flight back to Singapore. The Business Class seats we were using were the older Regional Business Class found on selected Airbus A330s and older Boeing 777s.

Although the seats were already showing their age, they were still comfortable and soft, as seen in their better days. The flight attendants did their usual routine of offering pre-departure beverages to the Business Class passengers. I had my usual glass of orange juice and settled in for the flight time of 3 hours 55 minutes to Singapore. I took some pictures while awaiting pushback from Gate No. 1.

At 3.10 p.m., all the aircraft doors were closed, and we finally pushed back from Gate No. 1, five minutes ahead of schedule. As the safety briefing information video was displayed, the aircraft started its taxi to its assigned runway for take-off. We then taxied past several aircraft parked along the airport tarmac and cargo terminal along the way.

After a somewhat long 25-minute taxi to our assigned runway, the aircraft's two powerful Rolls-Royce Trent 772B-60 engines spooled into action, and we finally lifted off from Hong Kong International Airport at 3.35 p.m.. We then climbed into the afternoon sky for a regional flight time over the South China Sea of 3 hours 35 minutes back home towards the Republic of Singapore.

The seatbelt sign was turned off at 3.45 p.m., just eight minutes shortly after take-off from Hong Kong International Airport. The crew sprung into action to commence the in-flight dinner service. A few minutes later, a flight attendant came to my seat to take my dinner order. I decided to have Cathay Pacific's signature dish, which was the wok-fried chicken with black bean, choy sum with ginger and steamed jasmine rice.

I also requested for my usual glass of orange juice at the same time. With that, the flight attendant took down my meal order, and returned to the galley to fetch my meal tray. A few moments later, the flight attendant re-appeared from the galley with two small plates of mixed nuts. As my brother usually never eats nuts, he gave me his share to finish off. My orange juice was brought to me at the same time.

Nuts, as always are pretty good, and these nuts suited my taste. A few minutes later, the flight attendant brought out my meal tray with my starter plate on it. I also requested for a cup of Diet Coca-Cola. Other than the shredded tomatoes, I left the prawns untouched. This was not because I did not like the starter, but I usually don't eat prawns, for fear that I might have allergies to them.

After approximately 20 minutes of waiting, my wok-fried chicken with black bean, choy sum with ginger and steamed jasmine rice finally arrived at my dining table. When I took one bite out of the chicken, it wasn't overcooked and was very tender. The steamed rice, black bean sauce and the choy sum were perfect accompaniments to this wonderful dinner. I knew I had made the right choice. Indeed, again, well done, Cathay Pacific for your catering! I must say that again, Cathay Pacific is the winner for the best in-flight meals I have eaten.

Upon finishing my sumptuous main dinner course, the flight attendant came by to clear my meal tray. At the same time, she asked me if there was anything else I wanted. I ordered two mugs of hot chocolate (one for my brother) and requested for a small tub of Cookies & Chocolate flavour Häagen-Dazs ice-cream. I then went to the lavatory and did my usual cabin shots before my dessert arrived. As soon as I arrived back at my seat, the flight attendant came by with our mugs of hot chocolate and my Häagen-Dazs Cookies & Chocolate ice-cream.

The ice-cream was a perfect dessert to round off a wonderful in-flight dinner. The hot chocolate helped to warm us up for the remaining sector to Singapore. After we finished our mugs of hot chocolate and my ice cream, the flight attendant came to clear our mugs and my plate away. Left with nothing better to do after that, I used my laptop for a while, until the seatbelt sign was illuminated for landing in Singapore.

The seatbelt sign was illuminated at seven o' clock, which was just 10 minutes prior to descent into Singapore Changi Airport. Knowing that we were about to arrive back in Singapore very soon, we immediately packed away all of our carry-on baggage into their storage areas and buckled up in preparation for the landing in Singapore.

The cabin was then dimmed for the landing, and night was already starting to fall as the aircraft started to make its final descent into Singapore. After a flight time of 3 hours 35 minutes from the modern city of the Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong, we finally touched down in Singapore Changi Airport at 7.10 p.m., which was right on schedule.

After spending just five minutes of taxiing along the runway, we finally docked on to our arrival gate, Gate No. D42, alongside a Japan Airlines Boeing 787-846 Dreamliner, which was parked at Gate No. D41 at 7.15 p.m.. As soon as the seatbelt sign was turned off, we got up and collected all of our baggage before we left the aircraft.

As we disembarked from the aircraft, the flight attendants bade us farewell and thanked us for our patronage with Cathay Pacific, prior to wishing us a pleasant journey home. As with my previous blog reports, the airline grading systems are as follows, with a 'D' being the minimum requirement for a passing grade:

A+: 85% or above (Airline has an excellent rating and performance)

A: 75% ~ 84% (Airline has a good rating and performance)

B: 60% ~ 74% (Airline has a good rating and performance)

C: 50% ~ 59% (Airline has an adequate rating and performance)

D: 40% ~ 49% (Airline has a fair rating and performance)

E: 20% ~ 39% (Airline has a poor rating and performance)

U: Below 20% (Airline has not met the requirement for the minimum grade)

Cathay Pacific Flight 635 Score Report

Seat: 19 / 20
Food: 20 / 20
Service: 17 / 20
Aircraft cleanliness: 16 / 20
Legroom space: 17 / 20
Total: 89 / 100

In summary, Cathay Pacific scored 89% for my flight back home to Singapore from Hong Kong. This means they deserve an 'A+', the highest airline grade. Truly, Cathay Pacific is an excellent airline, though the seats and aircraft can be quite old but comfortable. It was indeed another pleasant flight with them. Would I recommend Cathay Pacific and choose to fly with them again? Definitely, yes!

After we disembarked from Cathay Pacific flight CX 635 from Hong Kong, we walked to the immigrations area. The immigrations area was not very crowded that evening, as this was not the busy flight rush hour. We then headed down to clear immigration through the special fingerprint checkpoint, which is reserved exclusively for Singaporean citizens.

After we finished clearing the immigration checkpoint, I headed over to the baggage belt information screen to check where our check-in baggage would be arriving. According to the baggage belt information screen, our check-in baggage would be arriving at Belt No. 21. After all of us were out, my mum went to shop for some duty-free items. My dad and I, along with my brother proceeded to grab a few baggage trolleys and went to Belt No. 21 to claim our check-in baggage.

After we claimed all of our check-in baggage, we put all our bags on the trolleys and went into the arrival hall. As our car was parked in the basement car parking area of Terminal 3, we had to take the elevator up towards the departures and check-in area, and then take the Skytrain to Terminal 3. It was not a very long time before we reached the Skytrain Station in the departures and check-in hall of Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 1.

At 7.45 p.m., the Skytrain arrived at Terminal 1 and we immediately boarded the train to Terminal 3, only to reach within just two minutes. As soon as we were in Terminal 3, we took the elevator down to the second basement, where we parked our car. While my dad went to get the car, we unloaded all of our baggage onto the parking bay. Although our baggage was relatively heavy, they could fit in the boot of the car very well. As soon as we loaded all of our baggage, we finally drove back home, arriving back by nine o' clock later that night.

This now officially brings my blog report on my post-GCE 'O' Level examination vacation in Hong Kong to a close. The next upcoming trip report for December is a surprise report, but no one will know until I really experience it, so keep a very good look out for it! As always, I would like to thank you for your kind attention to my blog report on my post-GCE 'O' Level examination vacation in Hong Kong in November 2012, and I sincerely hope you have enjoyed reading it. Lastly, but certainly not least, have a very happy and pleasant blogging experience!
