~ I'm sorry littlegirl, I just don't accept that. BA still trundle out up to A hundred and forty something hot breakfasts on a 737-400 domestic in an hour.... and also used to manage a hot meal in the evening on DOM routes many years ago!!!!

Used to get a drink service, hot meal tray, wine, tea and coffee all in an hour on a 737-400... mind you there were usually 4 or 5 crew......

Some of us have long memories.......

it has everything to do with the cost base and the competition from Gatwick being Thomson, Monarch and Easyjet.
