I'm sure that removing the free mini packet of crisps will bring BA in line with its role model.
I just flew DY for the first time, OSL-TOS, and was pleasantly surprised. Was expecting hell on earth for a LCC, but self check in was faster than BA F LHR-OSL and boarding was very orderly for a full 737 with no CE/Gold/Silver/Bronze style. For their prices, I'd happily fly them again - probably over BA.
