Euro traveller catering from LCY
Does anyone have updates on when BA will stop the free meals from City airport? The website and other posts I have read so far all mention "from the summer 17 schedule the M&S cafe will be implemented on the LCY and Stansted routes". What does summer 17 mean for BA?
I have a flight from LCY to Ibiza on Sat 20th May.
Does anyone have specific dates on this change?
Thank you all for your help.

I asked the CC this question a few weeks ago and they had been told it would be some time in April. They have had their training.

The "free meals" stopped some time ago. On my most recent flights, the breakfast has been a tiny "toasted" panini and the evening service consists of a drink and packet of two shortbread fingers.

If you think you might want to eat and drink on your flight, you'd better pick something up at Pret by Gate 3. Or even a Boots meal deal.

Euro Traveller were still getting a proper hot breakfast and full bar service on my Band 3 flight last week - CC did not know exactly when the change was coming


LCY catering in CE was great both ways on this route (one breakfast, one light supper): better than the equivalent offering out of LHR/LGW

To clarify (as re-reading my post it looks confusing...) - I was travelling in CE, but in the last row with the curtain open so I know what the ET meal looked like: looked pretty decent still for the Band 3 flights

Thanks ratypus, very helpful. Doing the CE from Bergen to LHR now (Medium). Will post pics of the updated catering soon.
