However, since things may have changed recently (I'm sure they have, as domestic services/amenities have been cut) then others who have flown this sector within the past year can advise - I cannot - other than what I have already posted - more than a year ago! Most of the cuts would apply to the business class product, so I'm also interested to hear this, as I have a couple sectors to fly soon...

No salt/pepper. 2. Nothing enclosed in napkins any longer. (Mouth freshener, etc.) 3. No offer of coffee/tea on afternoon/morning flights. (Possibly due to the sector, but I flew afternoon/night once, then morning/night on another day) 4. Smaller glasses of water, and only water offered during meal/after meal, no coffee tea unless requested. (as per Point No. 3) 5. Crews not receptive to requests for anything extra, other than the main course. (Eg.: Fruit/fruit platters) I'm not one of the VIP's that Jet facilitates, such as the characters who get their (small) luggage carried for them on board! :p Keyser Feb 26, 12, 9:12 am I think you were referring to domestic, but let me list a few retorts/points (only been flying in the front cabin recently): 1.
