Thanks - had the same issue for my flight next week. Safe to assume I can get a pudding + cheese or should I be especially proactive in that regard?

More than 3.5h for the whole meal on a day flight, 1.5h for a first beverage after take off is absolutely unacceptable. 40m tops is what I consider acceptable in J on a day flight. 20-30m on a short night flight (I except 20m on the UD of a 747 where most of my BA short red eyes are spent but tolerate 30m otherwise).
I was sat at the end of the first smaller cabin. I think that both cabins were served in parallel at the same time.

I have posted this before, here are the previous and new quantities.
OLD
100% starters and 100% salads. Total 200%.
NEW
100% starters, 20% salads and 20% soup. Total 140%.

NEW

The process now is to not offer more than one choice and then only 40% hopefully ask for something else.
Has this changed?

I know LGW-LIM hasn't got the new CW Service but do we get two full meals ? Its a 12.5 hours flight departs at 1350 . I haven't flown CW for 3 years and although the journey was about the same length it was a night flight.
Sorry couldn't find a better place to ask this.
