The meal service is very disappointing on these flights.

Featheroleather is right on. Flew both these flights last weekend. On 15, the pizza + chips were served about 30 minutes after takeoff and the tiny turkey sandwich was served as we crossed California. The cheese and crackers about an hour out of HNL.

On 14, they served chips and cheese right after takeoff and an egg sandwich about an hour out of EWR. Interesting enough, both flights were not full. In fact, flight 14 was almost half empty. Lots of extra seats. Made the 9 hour flight much more enjoyable.

I flew 14 on Sunday, after the earthquake. Took off early and landed 30 minutes early at EWR.
