ok if that’s all you were saying that had already been said. And really no need to start talking about wilfully or not.

I assumed with your talk hypothesising that BA will remove OJ as there will no longer be a demand for it you were implying that should we wish it to stay we need to ask for it to demonstrate the demand, sorry if I misunderstood you talk of Management no longer seeing a demand for it

Two experiences this week.

LHR-SFO and it felt like the crew would have to go searching round the galley and could find it if I really wanted it. I went with water.

JFK-LHR was no issue at all, brought straight to me.

Two more experiences...

LHR-IAD. No OJ. "Purser has told us it's not to be offered at all" I was told.

JFK-LHR. No issues at all, OJ brought over on request.

More inconsistency, Both managed no hot towels and no drink runs through the flight though.

Very poor. I usually go for OJ and very rarely for Champers, as someone that tends not to booze on flights. If there is no OJ then I would probably go for sparkling water (but it sounds as though that may or may not be available). next time (if there is a next time) I shall ask for a Bucks Fizz (Mimosa for any Americans out there) and see what happens......

I have done plenty of CW travelling since this thread has started, and every time I've had no difficulty getting sparkling water (a definite improvement from my perspective), and as far as I could tell anyone who wanted orange juice could also have it.

The choice is champagne or still water or from “dry” countries orange juice or still water, there should be a problem asking for OJ.

I assume you meant NO problem asking for OJ CIHY
PHL>LHR on Monday evening I asked for Champagne and OJ and had no issues with either being provided. (Better quality OJ I felt as well!)
