I'll be interested to see the detail of this as isn't one cut replacing the second hot meal on TATL West Coast (which I think is a thing still) with a pizza slice? Asia flights already get a hot breakfast / hot second meal. So being added is:-
- cheese in addition to dessert.
- graze box on tray (has something shrunk to make these fit? I'm assuming those double decker trays aren't being brought back!) Maybe the water bottle is handed out not on the tray so the space created by the cuplet being taken off can be used. Or maybe the trays weren't full!
-magnum (or mini magnum)?
- pretzels with the bar service and tuck boxes are back.
So lots of positives.
Is the above accurate?

If you're thinking of the list that said "Bangkok, Beijing, Buenos Aires, Cape Town, Chennai, Hong Kong, Hyderabad, Johannesburg, Kuala Lumpur, Las Vegas, Lima, Los Angeles, Maldives, Mauritius, Mexico City, Narita, Oakland, Phoenix, Rio de Janeiro, San Jose (California), San Jose (Costa Rica), Santiago, San Francisco, Sao Paulo, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo (Haneda and Narita)", then I think that SEA is shorter than all of them if measured from LHR (although I know that some of these are LGW routes).

Rather unfortunate to announce this on a day where the headline du jour is "...eliminate needless plastic packaging....."
