All of the above mentioned items will have to go through the approval of unions. I have read somewhere that bedding in J was about to be tested but the unions were furious as it would have added extra work to
the FAs. Similar to hot food in C Europe. This will have to be approved by unions.
it is incredible that the AF strategy is driven by what unions approve or not. I mean for SH flights and in Business Class, the current service can take 20min max. It is too much to ask the FAs to put dishes in the oven and extend the service time by an extra 10 or 20 minutes especially on flights longer than 2h?
