Just back from LPA in Club with 48 CE passengers. Did not get very well looked after (not the crews fault - I don’t think that three crew is enough for such a large cabin) - got 100 ml of champagne in a plastic glass (they used the glass ones on the way out) and had to wait 40 mins to get a top up as two crew had to serve 12 full rows.

They also run out of vodka and other drinks mid way through the flight ( the crew said they had a rough time on the outbound as they ran out of alcohol). This is similar to my flights last year. Given that this is (I think) the third winter of doing the route they either need to reduce the Club cabin or fully stock and staff it.

So for me, don’t see the point of Club on this route - rather self cater to get what I want when I want it.
