They swapped Chicken for Turkey on my TATL yesterday (in J, so I assume it was on offer to W also). I didn't order it so no photo, but the beef I had wasn't the usual shoe leather, and sort of slow cooked I guess as it fell apart.

Sorry if this question has been answered elsewhere, what should be my expectation currently for the second meal service in WTP (LHR-SJC)? Have the previous "enhancements" been addressed yet or do I need to come prepared!
Many thanks in advance! |
You may be forgiven for thinking this is a slightly confusing answer, but essentially WT catering has been improved somewhat, and there are several tales of people now getting as much food as they can eat in WT. If you look at this thread, as far as I can tell there are only a few direct reports from WT (and one was someone on a vegetarian diet) whereas there are quite a few reports - toward the end - of WTP catering. Essentially the WTP main meal is still the plated WT meal but with a CW option, and then the various extras from WT generally come through to WTP too. The Magnum isn't guaranteed but seemingly is being delivered. See posts approx 175 onwards.
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...rovements.html WTP is have a revamp later this year, including (if what I've been told is correct) further "catering distinctiveness" from WT. I suspect the reach of these changes will be greater than they were for WT. |
I was just wondering what (if anything) is offered on BA72 AUH to LHR as it departs at 01:50 and lands at 06:30.

The problem is the inconsistency, you never know what you're going to get.

ON WT+ IAD-LHR, is it true that BA doesn't serve any breakfast at all and you just get the main dinner service and nothing else?

orange juice or water pre-departure drinks round and small sandwich wraps post take-off. Immediately before drinks round, the CSM came round and asked if there was anything he could do for us, to which I enquired whether it would be possible to have a glass of champagne. He said 'of course'. Thumbs up when he promptly delivered a couple of glasses of LPGS from F. Service was great from all the crew. Snack boxes delivered with the drinks round - popcorn, crisps, Twix Plenty of juice and water in the back galley, along with biscuits, kit Kat, cadburys chocolates etc. Hot breakfast just over an hour before landing- horrid but we ate in the arrivals lounge thanks to gold status. Overall, we were impressed with the offering |

Overall, we were impressed with the offering I'll be gold by the time of the flight, so fingers crossed for similar treatment from the CSM! :) I'm connecting up to LBA after so I'll probably have breakfast in the first lounge. |

And what does the breakfast box contain? I'm booked in WT+. Personally, I can't stand the Club World seats and I'm not impressed by BA F, so will probably just stick to WT+.
Id plan on eating on the ground if I were you, if the option is the box |

if you can’t stand a CW aisle seat, I’m afraid you’re not going to be happier in WT+. Although I guess your wallet will be! Id plan on eating on the ground if I were you, if the option is the box |

WTP cabin half empty both ways LHR - IAD in Jan when I flew it. Second service of sandwich outbound and box thing on return for brekkie was not quite what I'd expect. Virgin premium economy get proper afternoon tea with cakes - not a box thrown at you. Not impressed at all. Snack box may have made its way around Y but didn't come into our cabin, and no CSM greeting either way as a Gold member.

Must admit the breakfast bagel is pretty horrible. I don't understand why its so hard to provide a cheap (this is BA after all) and tasty breakfast. Personally I would be fine with yoghurt and fruit.

Some pictures from the WT+ offering on the delayed 10.05 service from Dubai.

Snack box: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2955a2697d.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...216c69225e.jpg Did disturb me that the Corners packet was the wrong way around you opened the box. Just a quick edit to add, the crew served more than enough Vodka and Coke Zero for me. |
