Amusingly, the size of that page is one of the things I don't like about UA. On AC, if the block time is 2 hours, you get a hot meal, and it's generally what you'd expect at that time of day.

On United, 2:20 gets you a meal during a 4 hour window, but not the other 20 hours. 3:59 gets you a meal for 15 out of the 24 hours. 5:19 is the same, but you get a hot snack for an extra hour after meals end. And 5:20 on a p.s. route doesn't even get you a guaranteed meal service (though their "snack" is quite reasonable).

Having flown quite a bit of AC and UA, I'd say AC's meal service offerings are much more consistent in J.

When it comes to PY, UA doesn't seem to have any page dedicated to it, so I'm as lost as I am on AC.
