I have taken this flight many times. My experience is that the beverage service starts about 45 minutes after take-off (there will be pre-departure champagne offered) and the dinner service will start about 2 hours after take-off. This is why I am careful to eat something in the J lounge prior to boarding. I don't recommend eating a full meal, as the dinner service is plentiful Assuming your flight is 10 hours, your meal service will be be over 3 hours after departure. Breakfast will be served about 60-90 minutes prior to landing. There will be snacks available in the galley throughout your flight
