A real shame to read of the attitude and lack of organisation on your flight; one point is worth clarifying though.

Malaga is Band 3 and as such, if the CE load is equal to or exceeds 33, then the SCCM can dispense with the pre dinner bar round and go straight to meal delivery (with a colleague following closely behind with a drinks trolley).

This is is designed to ensure the service flows smoothly with higher CE loads, and avoids rushing at the end .
