I've had good luck recently getting Glenlivet on flights where it wasn't listed on the menu. It never hurts to ask even if it's not listed on the menu. I've got no idea why the menu doesn't match what's loaded on the actual flight. The wine list has been similarly inconsistent lately (for example, only listing Prosecco while Champagne is actually provisioned onboard).

Pre-COVID it was about 75% chance they had a few glenlivet's even on 737/A321s where they also aren't on the menu. Some FAs didn't even know they were there, but after asking they'd look and find them.

Sorry if I can't find it but was considering a flight in November for Thanksgiving. One of the late (9:30pm departure) JFK-LAX flights lists meal in J/F as Snack/Brunch. Pre-covid was it not a full service meal at that time?

Pre-COVID, the >9pm JFK-LAX never had the full meal. Total cop out, but that's what it was! Also, I don't think the redeye did either, but now it does, so who knows.

Serving time for lunch? 10:45am DFW to OGG?

I wonder if this is the case all the time? We fly this next month and the departure time is 930am (i think right now its 9:10am). last time we flew this route a few years ago I recall trying to take a nap as soon as we lifted off and waking up to almost missing my meal! And the flight attendant seemed perturbed! But I had been up since 3am and wasnt expecting to be served lunch early.

Enjoyed a good meal up front on the way to Maui. I had the Porcini Tortelli and Mrs Slpybear had the beef short rib. Everything was well done and food tasty. Wish it wasn't served at 10:45am, but alas First World Problems. Our arrival small plate choices were a protein bowl or fruit bowl. Had the fruit and was pleased. Everything was pretty normal in F Hawaii compared to pre-covid other than no PDB, plastic cups, and food all on one tray. Great way to travel to

Heres my F meal service recollection having flown the DFW non-stops to OGG and HNL for many years. They have always been lunch on the outbound and dinner inbound. Except a very brief period after AA moved the first flight departures to an earlier time. Shortly after that, we got on #123 (before pre orders) and we were served breakfast. The grumbling throughout the cabin was audible. I think breakfast lasted a very short time. And yes its an early lunch on CST.

I believe it's standard to have 3 minis catered per flight, even on the narrowbodies. It's not always my drink of choice, but think I can only recall one time since it was brought back a few years ago when I asked and it wasn't available. I just assumed it was a mis-cater on that occasion.

Even now in 2021, it's been available every time I've requested it.

All the info I can find is very general, and doesn't specify mainline vs. regional. I wonder what a CRJ-700 1,200 mile flight in First service will be at breakfast time in June?

I don't see meal choice option.

There will be a meal, however there will not be an option to pre-order.
