Chinanews.com, April 1st. Comprehensive Japanese media reported on March 31 that international travel has almost stalled due to the new crown pneumonia epidemic. Japanese airlines have "transformed" Boeing 777 passenger planes between Japan and Europe into restaurants. Let the planes that are forced to sit idle can be used.
Although the price is not cheap, the service is sold out as soon as it is launched.
According to reports, the epidemic has affected the normal flight of international flights and caused a sharp drop in passengers. Therefore, Japan's All Nippon Airways will "transform" international airliners that cannot be used due to the epidemic into expensive restaurants.
According to the report, the restaurant is located in the first class and business class of the aircraft, not only to maintain sufficient distance between seats, but also to take relevant epidemic prevention measures.
Japan’s "Yomiuri Shimbun" reported that first-class meals cost nearly 60,000 yen (approximately RMB 3,550), and business-class airplane meals are also nearly 30,000 yen; the types of meals are divided into Western and Japanese cuisines.
Airline public relations staff stated that the service provided by the "restaurant" is almost the same as the service on international routes.
A 35-year-old office worker who came to enjoy the meal said that he can take the dream first-class cabin with the mood of traveling abroad. “The meal is also very luxurious and very satisfying.”
This plan to "transform" the current 777 aircraft into a restaurant is very popular with consumers. The pre-bookings have been sold out, and the airline industry will hold similar events in the future.
