October 1st
Not sure if it's been posted already, but look out for Phase 1 of the introduction of NGCW on 1st October.
This phase is really quite exciting. New menus, the removal of Raid the Larder and the introduction of a new onboard product in its place, the introduction of new crockery and soft tray furnishings (napkins, cloths etc).
It's all really, really, very nice.

Cor sounds nice Tits! I'll be in J from YYZ in early November and I won't sleep at all the previous night... But seriously it does sound like another genuine 'enhancement'. Do you know if it will be introduced fleet wide on that date?

Right, I've tried to get information from the intranet and while I've found it, it's in PDF format and my connection this evening is ungodly slow.
I will post full details tomorrow. If I remember correctly, however, the new product will go live 1st Oct on all outbound flights but not on inbound flights for a few days. We have to ship out supplies to outstations and they have to get these supplies ready to use.

Is this ex LHR on the 1st October or from other destinations too? My GF is taking a J flight from BKK departing in the early hours on the 2nd October, however presumably this flight would have left the UK on the 30th September and thus will not have any new components?
