Code after my Exec Card number on the boarding pass.

Hi

I am travelling tomorrow to JFK and on my boarding pass is a code "CQML" after the Exec Card number. What does this mean?.

Have you requested a special meal / preordered?

Indication that you've pre-ordered your main course I believe.
It also appears in the booking details in MyFlights.

I agree with others, the same code only appeared after I pre-ordered my meal for a recent flight. I didn't order a special meal just pre-selected what my choice was for the main course meal. If you google CQML and British airways the first link is to the special meals page on the BA website.

ML = meal, meaning a special meal order

CQ = ???

Maybe low cal or low cholesterol?

I'd agree - it's the meal preselection.

I ordered one last week and got BQML as I chose the second item on the list.

No idea, the list of SSRs just has numbered options

CQML is a comprehensive quality meal for those who are identified posting positive comments about BA on FT.

BQML is a bullsh*t quality meal for those who are identified posting negative comments about BA on FT.

Statement : 'I have the impression that BA is making great progress towards increasing customer satisfaction by implementing great enhancements based upon customer demand and based upon the appropriate time of the day. I hate amuse bouche's and i hate flowers in the toilets. I dislike wifi on board.'

I hope that with the above positive statement I will receive CQML meals in the future instead of the BQML meals I had until now.

Couldn't agree with you more. Turbulence makes them very difficult to hit.
