Correct I'd expect a possible voucher style offering. The overall atmosphere and the general areas of LCY are much for intimate and lounge like anyway compared to most airports.

I however suggest that as people will in general be arriving very close to departure that they may opening the plane for boarding at the same time as 747/777 timing eg 40 minutes before and the pre-take off drinks will cover off.

Both of the quotes departurues times (1240, 1600) are outside of the morning and evening rush on this business focused airport so I'd imagine a high degree of confidence that the ground service will be quick.

Can't wait to try.
