Oops .... yes, indeed, most definitely a typo !!
Should have read ‘lower on BA’ !

The OP was unhappy about a particular price increase on BA, but to my way of thinking the markup margins on BoB applied by ALL carriers are excessive. Good luck to them, I guess, if they can get away with it. It’s a captive market after all, once you’re planted in your seat ; and a healthy take-up from willing buyers = healthy profit.

Other threads discuss the broader issues surrounding BoB so I shouldn’t dwell too much here, other than to say that this latest BA menu seems very limited in terms of content and something of a lost opportunity to provide more innovative and nutritious food options.
