Here's a commercial for Continental
Here's a commercial for Continental Airlines, with a stewardess (a terminology later replaced with "flight attendant", not to mention "Oriental") (likely Lydia Lei, who was later in "Doctor Detroit" as Jasmine) explaining a new elegant "Golden Dragon Service" that makes stops at Los Angeles as well as Taipei.
She then shows the various cuisine that is served on such flights - and proceeds to serve one of the meals (duck) to Charlie Chan (veteran actor and voice artist Marvin Miller) and Number One Son (Peter Kwong).
(NOTE: This ad preceded by over a year the making of the film "Charlie Chan and the Curse of the Dragon Queen" with Peter Ustinov as the fabled Chinese detective.)
Ending voiceover by Casey Kasem (with the lower-third on the screen advising such flights as "Starting February 1").
"Welcome to the splendors of the Orient."
This aired on local Chicago TV on Wednesday, February 28th 1979 at approximately 7:20pm.
