Seen on twitter a passenger saying that Titan CCs were asking BA to load more food without any success as they faced anger for slow delivery and low stocks.
In fact the service on Air Asia takes about five minutes to serve all of the passengers who have preordered food so that line of argument is utterly false.

BA simply aren't interested in offering a service to their economy passengers is the message they are really sending out....if I was in ET now I'd be stocking up before boarding on any flight.
