LAX-ICN Midnight Thirty Departure

Looking at the LAX-ICN that departs at 12:30am arriving at 5:30am in F suites on the 380. I can't really determine what kind of dining services to expect from OZs awful website but United lists it as "Breakfast."

Surely there is not only one meal served. Call me petty but I don't want to burn the money to fly in an F suite overnight if the service is going to be that of a US domestic red eye.

Used the search feature and google and can't find a trip report/previous thread reflecting this timeframe.

Thanks for your incredibly constructive comment!

I've tried calling them but spending hours on hold with OZ not understanding what the hold message is saying doesn't really seem like a good use of time.

They'll do what everyone does on TPACs in premium cabin - a dinner service following departure, a snack mid-flight if you wish, and a breakfast prior to arrival.

I think the real question is whether that dinner/supper service will be watered down like on SQ/JL where it's practically a J meal, or still full-ish like CX

Well that's really the question that OP didn't ask

Who knows with OZ's cost cutting lately.

I'll be on this flight in F late next week. I figure there's probably others besides the OP who are curious, so I'll let you know what's on the menu.

Everyone but KE, that is. On their day-time TPAC, they serve the main meal soon after take-off, then another largish meal about 6 hours later, then ... nothing for the rest of the flight. Very odd. And don't get me started on their thimbles of wine.

NH does not really offer a full dinner on its LAX-HND flight. A generous snack, but not a full dinner.

I am also curious to find out what OZ does on that midnight flight.

Anyone know if they have a full meal service in F on the redeye LAX-ICN?
(Or do they follow NH practice and just serve snacks even though the flight is like 12 hours).

A few months ago I got what appeared to be a full, multi-course, dinner and breakfast.
