"Good evening passengers. This is your captain speaking. First I'd like to welcome everyone on Garuda Indonesia Flight GA 0538 non-stop to London Heathrow Airport.
We also would like to welcome our SkyTeam partners and our today's codeshare flight passengers of Air France flight AF 53707, Delta Air Lines flight DL 00142, China Eastern Airlines flight MU 09200, Virgin Atlantic Airways flight VS 69069 and TAROM Romanian Airlines flight RO 53480.
We are currently cruising at an altitude of 33,000 feet at an airspeed of 400 miles per hour. The time is 6:25 pm right now in Merak, Banten, which is where this plane is currently flying above at. The weather looks good and with the tailwind on our side we are expecting to land in London approximately fifteen minutes ahead of schedule.
The weather in London is clear and sunny, with a high of 25 degrees for this afternoon. If the weather cooperates we should get a great view of the city by the time we descend in 14 hours time. The cabin crew will be coming around to offer you a light snack and beverages. I'll talk to you again before we reach our destination. Until then, sit back, relax and enjoy the rest of the flight."

After refilling the champagne glass, the flight attendants served the caviar with shrimp crackers and the little pancakes called blinis and creme fraiche. It's Garuda's twist, and it was proven to be a delight that works very well, as both caviar and shrimp crackers came from the sea.
"What are you watching, babe?" Henry asked as he looked across his husband, whose eyes were glued to the AVOD screen.
"An interesting documentary about Marina Bay Sands' food and beverage business," Alex replied. "I'm amazed by how a single chef can run 20 restaurants and in-room service for over 2500 rooms inside the complex."
"Oh, really?" Henry's eyes looked back into the laptop in front of him. Thanks to the unlimited inflight wi-fi, Henry can work on things that he needs to do before landing in New York.
"And here I thought that our hotels' large wok is big enough to serve everyone," Alex said as he saw one of the workers on the screen working on a large wok. "But theirs is larger than ours."
Henry replied as his eyes still focused on the laptop and his fingers tapping the tuts of the keyboard, "You may not notice it but The Venetian and Palazzo is probably the largest one."
"I guess. By the way, what are you working on?"
"I'm working on the modifications of the purchasing contract. Had to submit it in an hour."
"OK. I'll not disturb you further."
"Good. Thank you."
It felt like twenty minutes later when Sherina and Anggi appeared in front of them, kneeling down. "Mr. Bakker-Smith, we hope you're hungry. We are about to serve dinner soon. What do you want to eat after the caviar service?"
"Please wait for a few minutes," Henry said to Anggi, eyes still glued to the laptop. "I haven't read the menu yet."
Anggi replied, "Yes, sir. I will be back in 5 minutes."
Alex, meanwhile, replied to Sherina, "I would like a Roasted pumpkin soup with wild mushrooms and parmesan for the appetizer, and the egg fried rice with Kobe wagyu steak slices for my main course, please."
Sherina asked, "What about the dessert, Sir?"
"Chocolate lava cake with salted caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream is on the menu, right?"
