So, I only checked Band 2 but went back to check VLC, both destinations are showing in both Bands!
And stop calling me handsome, that’s our secret. 🤫

Mine came foil less, so the crew probably didn't know!

China mugs weren't on my Neo LHR to MYK flight or the return A320 MYK to LHR this week. Paper cups.

LGW seem to have secured their mug stash earlier than LHR. I noticed mugs last week ALC-LGW also.

Outbound from LHR we were given menus and I went for the cod while my partner went for the mac and cheese:




Both tasted much better than they looked and the services was great, with plenty of gin flowing ensuring I never had an empty glass! The coffee desert was excellent too, with my partner cheekily asking for seconds from the crew (a request they were very happy to oblige with)

On the return flight, we did not recieve menu cards however the option was the Tikka Massala, Pasta and Prawn Cocktail menu. I had the curry while my partner chose the pasta -



Could not fault the curry at all, was very enjoyable and the portion was very reasonable. The pasta apparently was great too apparently, it certainly didn't hang around thats for sure haha.
On this flight though the crew were absolutely exceptional - and with just 4 rows in the cabin felt even more personal; bringing our meals from the galley uncovered.
After the crew learned of me and my partners recent engagement, towards the end of the flight we were approached by them with a small surprise:




Completely took us by surprise and was such a lovely gesture from them! Was a great end to our trip away thats for sure.
Overall I have to rate my experience with Club Europe very highly on both journeys - I know there's a lot of room for improvement, but when BA is good, they can still be really good and both the crew on this flight really show that.
When BA are good they are amazing.

On a combined meal and drinks service you should be asked would you like anything to drink?

I agree from a presentational point of view.

However, the curry has two foil lids: one covers the dish containing the curry on top of which are two pieces of naan bread. The second foil lid covers the naan bread. Crew on my flight on Friday were very good at collecting the used foil covers.

From this mornings NCL-LHR, BA1327
Informed at check in that I'd been upgraded which was a nice surprise. (Thank you from BA, enjoy your upgrade printed on my BP).

Wasn't expecting salads at 10:15 though, what happened to the brunch plate?
