BA 794 LHR-HEL 1125-1610 A-320



Preferred BA drink



Pretty good salad, could have used a third prawn though



Choice of beef cheek or pasta with chicken. This dish was quite good and I was surprised at the amount of chicken. Overall a pretty good CE lunch though these tiny trays are annoying and hard to keep plates on.
serfty and TWCLAM like this.

Does the BOB menu exist in a PDF or similar online? I'm trying to decide if i should buy breakfast at the airport or wait until i'm onboard.

Both the bacon roll and ham and egg sandwich looks tasty! And cheaper than most airport food at OSL

If you want more input to consider your options at OSL, here is a pretty extensive guide of various food options available:

You may have to wait on board depending on where you are sat. They may also sell out of your preferred food. Buy at the airport.

Very important - don't rely on BOB especially when it's an inbound during meal times.

That link leads to a comment form for some reason.
But OSL is my local airport so i'm aware of the selection there. It has gotten alot better since the reopening. But the prices has also gone up unfortunately.

I'm spending some expiring points on a nice looking airport hotel to get an hour more sleep, and they serve a simple breakfast in the early morning.
Since the flight itself would be timed close to a second meal/snack, i thought of it more as a hobbit style second breakfast, so i think i'll probably take my chances on the bacon roll being in stock.

Thanks for the link though. I now have to get to Prindsen hage to try that fried chicken he writes about

My flight from RHO to LGW in late October has just been changed to a 180 seat A320, which to me spells a Titan wet-leased plane. So do Titan sell the BA standard BOB menu in ET, have their own BOB menu, or provide complimentary refreshments?

If it is operated by Titan airways and crew, you will receive complimentary food (snack) and drinks.

I think this was correct at the start of the Titan wet leases, but they are now selling the standard BA BoB (at least when I was on Titan in May and June this was the case).

Was very impressed with the whole meal - I had beef Stroganoff and my partner went with the Curry. It went well with the copious amounts of champagne and red wine we were offered!
