Well, I was nice and I gave BMI a chance and BMI were, quite frankly, poor. I was on Wednesday's BD 587. Corporate TA from heck had kindly allocated me a window seat in row 15. BD had kindly ensured that the two seats next to me were free (so there might be a point of holding a gold card after all). The FAs use two trolleys. One starts from the back and the other from the front so obviously, the worst place to sit from the point of view of getting what you want is in the middle (oops). The FAs serving from the back got to me first and the conversation went like this:
Internaut: "Can I have a bacon sandwich please?" (not very hopeful)
FA: "Sorry, we only have snacks left."
Internaut: "What? No sandwiches at all?"
FA: "No sandwiches."
Internaut: "No thankyou."
I've used LCCs on a few occasions now and I have to say, this is the first time that one has run out of anything substantial to eat by the time they got to me!
