GONE today on my on-time, on-schedule, 7.5 hour LHR-JFK (in Y). Cocktail service and lunch started together about 45 minutes after departure

I asked one of the cabin crew if they didn't do the pre-lunch drinks anymore and she didn't reply but pointed at the drinks cart right next to the meal cart.

Sure, would make sense on overnights, but not on daytime eastbound TATLs nor on any of the westbounds.

Something appears to be afoot…
