This was one of the best flights we've ever had in the last few years. The plane seemed to be brand new, even the bathroom was a much better size that on other planes lately (I am not a large person, but can estimate objectively). The food was very good, much improved from the past. Silverware was made of sturdy wood, not flimsy plastic as we've on many other flights.
