This is Part 7, the last part of my most recent trip to Japan and Thailand. Our flight back home left Bangkok at 8:00am to Tokyo Narita on Japan Airlines, and then connected to American Airlines back to LAX. Since we had to be at the airport at 6:00am to check in, we had to leave the hotel at 5:30a, which meant we had to wake up before 5:00am. The Waldorf knew this and arranged to have a box breakfast sent up to us at 5:00am. It was a huge breakfast actually with fruit, croissant, muffin, sandwich, juice, water, and coffee. It was amazing. The same hotel car took us back to the airport. This time it was a much shorter ride so early in the morning. Japan Airlines has their own lounge at Bangkok airport and I had a bowl of curry and stocked up on some snacks.

Even though this was an early flight, breakfast was not served. It was a regular lunch/dinner type of meal service for this 6 hour flight to Tokyo. Again, I ordered the Japanese meal for my last meal on the Japanese airline.

pathetic dessert, but the fruit was good

descent into Narita

Once we landed at Narita we just over 2 hours for a layover. We found the Sakura Lounge and it was packed. We were in the satellite part of Terminal 2. We didn't want to go to the main part of the terminal because our flight to LAX was leaving from the satellite too.

Japanese meal again

it was really yummy

Curry was part of the western meal, but I asked and I received. It looked terrible, but tasted great.

The meal before we landed was quite good. The panna cotta was great.
