- The usual US hockey-puck inedible pre-packed bread roll
- Dessert. Yep, dessert. For breakfast. Nope, I don't get it either.
Coffee and tea, although I had to specifically ask for a second cup on collection of the tray. I remember the days when the CC came through on a second round BEFORE tray collection.
NO juice or water runs AT ALL during the flight. You might argue that a sheduled flight time of 6 hours isn't long, but I think it's appalling that we weren't offered a drink between meal services. Perhaps we are all expected to tappy-lappy back to the galley now. It's not as if they were even that busy - the load in Y was pretty light.
And then to the second meal service...
A muffin. And coffee (or tea).
Dreadful. It's worse even than with the LCCs. At least there you can buy more food if you want it. On BA you get your muffin and that's it.
From now on I'm going to have to start bringing food on board with me, which is frankly ridiculous if BA are claiming to be a full-service airline.
And that's for a ticket costing anything from 570GBP to 1600GBP... I agree, it is disgraceful.
