Sorry, maybe it’s just me but this seems contradictory. are you saying the Fruit & Cheese platter is free in FC only if you pre-order it as your FC meal (as pictured below when I’m choosing my FC meal) but if you pre-order it for Main cabin and then get upgraded to FC (at say T-2h), then you can’t have it free in FC? And the reason is that they only load a certain number of FC and Main meals so if you take a main meal they can’t sell it in the back?
Last year in FC I was offered (and took) the Fruit & Cheese platter for one of my meals and was not charged. At the time pre-ordering was not available and there were only two options - the sandwich (which they ran out of) or the Fruit & Cheese platter. Maybe things have changed. Would be pretty lame in my opinion as they seems to love promoting the platter.
