I don't want to go OT, but I can only assume that you mostly fly band 1/2 rather than band 3/4. The food is more repetitive than the previous free band 3 and certainly doesn't look better, and it is much worse than band 4.

Also on fares, unfortunately, LHR-NCE on BA are significantly more expensive now than they were before BA introduced HBO, then BoB. The flights are also so packed that the free same day change with Plus fares is pretty much useless. My last three plus fares saw either no flight I could change to or only the late evening one which is useless to me (out of 4-7 daily LHR-NCE depending on season) and I have now stopped buying them on that route since they changed the change fee for advanced change from 0+ fare difference to €80/£60+fare difference.
