Frequeny and nature of menu changes

I just had a couple of menu questions.
How often do the menus change in EK F
I flew Auckland-Dubai in May - one menu.
Flew the same route in July, and a different menu.
Flying Auckland-Dubai in October appears to be exactly the same menu as in May.
Is this the normal pattern - 3 month rotation and then back?

It usually rotates every 3-4 months indeed. And then you have the structural changes to the menu (eg a now much improved and more generous Arabic mezze in F imo) that happen sporadically

One of the biggest weak spots on EK is actually their catering concept. It's very repetetive with 2-3 cycles that repeat all the time. They seem to be working on their catering concept by replacing certain dishes, so far no highlights, or adding the "Movie Snacks" etc., but everywhere there is no creativity and repetition all the time. I really hope they will come up with a Pre order concept simmilar as on SQ where you get the choice of different main courses covering Western, Middle Eastern, Indian and Asian dishes for people to choose from.
