Poor show BA, I don’t drink and found the restrictive precious options somewhat annoying but to be refused a soft drink upon request would put a sour taste for the remainder of the flight IMHO

if the crew said something like ‘I can get you an OJ if you’d prefer’ that would be a different matter.

Or indeed just asked what you would like to drink from the options, and then one CC is pouring. Then no waste.
Admittedly lt I don’t like the way that AA do pre-flight drinks- giving me a massive Diet Coke to drink before the security briefing, but even they do pre-flight drinks better than BA.

Certainly agree with the chatting and pathetic BS service which is more the norm now. Never seen them taking selfies mind you...

Then again, I wouldn’t read too much into HIDDY’s mixed messages - especially where matters of bubbly stuff are concerned. His comment “I rarely drink champagne” comes just a couple of hours after “I always chose champagne”

I've been on 30+ AA domestic sectors in F in 2017 on the full spectrum of aircraft and to/from most (all?) of the hubs, and consistently been offered a PDB every single time.
