[Rumor] FA says "No catering on short flights" beginning April 1, 2018

There is a thread about this, IIRC, but I just can't find it.

Was on United's 15th shortest flight, AVP-EWR at 96 miles.
Pleasantly surprised: Stroopwaffel was handed out to everyone before door close, and FA proactively offered all 1k and GS a snack (pack). Orange juice and water was offered.
Flight duration 28 minutes.
UA really stepped up their game, I thought. Munoz came through.

​​​​Just as I was so impressed, FA announced (paraphrasing): "After April 1st, United will not offer any catering on its shortest flights. You will need to bring your own water from then on."

Yikes. United back to it's horrible self. Kirby at work.
