And that's it. A Bacon Bap for Pete's sake... And as usual for breakfast flights, no dessert or anything. I thought that you usually get at least one "lunchy" option but clearly not this time. And then the second meal will be the ghastly afternoon tea, right? So you can have great food on this flight like - errr... Bacon bap for your first meal and afternoon tea sandwiches for the second. High class stuff really.

Before, the bistro selection would enable you to get some semblance of a normal meal at some point in the flight like having pasta or a curry, but of course, this has long gone leaving passengers with a wholly inadequate food offer.

Does anyone know if any of the special meals provide an actual meal at some point during the flight?
