Amazing view from the pilot's seat I must say. Years back the last-minute upgrade to business was $50 from Bangkok, but it was worth it. And yes I think thats the Everest above the clouds.

Since you're already boarding first and taking pictures of everything, I sometimes wonder why you don't go for broke and start carrying a tape measure with you to measure pitch when you need to. I'm talking a small one that's used for sewing and not made of metal.

Copying you, I also planned a trip to Bhutan and found out that business class roundtrip is only about $100 more expensive than economy. They do allow you to request special meals in advance.

Could it be that the third pilot is there in case anything happens to one of the other pilots since it's such a delicate and complex landing procedure?

Isnt the point of the pilots job to make sure nothing seems dangerous?

I thought pilots' jobs were primarily to fly the plane.

@ 747always @ betterbub – it's both. Normally they're the same thing, but I guess not in this case.

For the next trip, you should visit the Chinese town of Qingdao. It was invaded in the second world war by Germany, and I think it is a beautiful place to visit. I think you should do
JFK-SHA-LCY BA (British Airways)
LCY-FRA BA (British Airways)
FRA-TAO LH (Lufthansa)
TAO-MEL JD (Beijing Capital Airlines)
MEL-SGN VN(Vietnam)
SGN-BKK TG (Thai)
BKK-TAO SC (Shandong Airlines)
TAO-YVR (Capital Airlines)
It might be hard to redeem some points for these flights. As far as I know Shandong Airlines is a subsidiary of Air China and Beijing Capital Airlines is a subsidiary of Hainan. I think you can try more airline business classes.
