FCO-WAW (Business Class) Info
Has anybody recently flown AZ on the above route? If so, could you please throw a light on the following:
- Lounge: which one would I use at FCO? Moreover, is there an AZ or Sky Team lounge at WAW?
- Aircraft: any idea of the plane normally in use on this particular route? I've heard that it is usually a former AP's A320?
- Catering: 'rumors' suggest that AZ recently upgraded their European business class product - is that correct and what am I likely to get in terms of food?
Any tips in relation to the above would be highly appreciated.
With thanks in advance,
G

I was in the WAW lounge a few weeks ago. All I remember is packages of chips, cookies, a small self-service bar and some very dry cake. This was morning, so maybe there will be more in the afternoon. At least the wifi worked.

Just flown IEV-ROM. The food is same sh.. (sorry) as it was, though to some extent better than AF shorthaul premium food.
The only and quite a significant improvement from last year is new silverware - it is now quite heavy and more genuine for a business class.
On the downside is the prosecco being served from a big bottle (0.75l) rather than having a small bottle given to passengers, but this could be one flight problem rather than a new policy.

Do you mean the lovely prawn salad?
Out of interest, what did you get [in terms of food] on your flight?Well, it doesn't take much to beat the awful AF's plastic box

AF's shorthaul food is a real shame, happy to see the support
