Like a former airhostess I am really thrilled with this initiative! Although I stopped working as a airhostess some 30 years ago but I still taste and spot a lot of the ame old coffee I used to make in my days. I hope that everyone can soon drink their coffee the way they like it at all flights, like for example the espresso served in the business class of Air France and KLM. ^Marjolein
