Nothing to get your hopes up over. Comfy and close to gates. No announcements which caught a few less experienced travelers. Food average but definitely an improvement

avoid Hong Kong airlines at all costs. flew it home from HKG today via Gold Coast on the VA code share. Not even close to being in the same league as VA.

correct - flew this week. you are fine

That's Hong Kong airlines code share. Don't take it. very dissapointing compared to VA
