Really pi**ed me off. It is idiotic and if you tell them off about it the crew actually get quite defensive (while staying polite of course) referring to procedures and all that. Yah sure if you make people put their seat upright and retract leg rest as soon as descend starts from cruising altitude while still being over 200+ miles away from the destination then you need the time to finish the meal service. Ridiculous and super annoying to me.
I have not figured out why SQ and other Asian airlines with 6-7 hour redeye flights do not do as BA does across the Atlantic - run a sleeper service.
