Overall a great flight despite the limited snack and drinks service.
I have had 8 segments in the last few months now. All segments have been between 500 and 900 miles. 3 have been mainline and 5 on OO. The level of amenities is a bit light even for those segments (it would be nice to have a snack basket of items you could choose from) but the service from FAs has been attentive on every flight. On my most recent connecting itinerary with both flights under 700 miles I got 3 glasses of cheap wine on each flight for a nice little buzz
The Redwood cab is very inconsistent in quality FWIW. Some bottles tasted adequate while some tasted like wine that had been open and sitting on the counter for two weeks.
