YX doesn't have an F cabin. Never did.

Traditionally, way back when (pre-9/11) YX used to 1) serve meals on pretty much any flight over 1.5 hours -- I've had filet and lobster and 2) before noon, free champagne and after noon free white and red wine.

Most flights used to be 2x2 seating on a plane that traditionally would be a 2x3 plane.

Today it's different--lots more 'saver service' flights that have BOB meals. Buying drinks is pretty much the same as other carriers now.

Now they offer buy-on-board meals that, I think, are better than what you can get on any other airline--but you still have to pay.

Warm chocolate chip cookies are still given out on most flights, but that's it.

I truly miss the 'old' days. They still are a great airline, but, for me, have lost a lot of luster in the last few years.
