Meal Swap
Just saw the meals for an upcoming flight MAD-JFK and the premium economy sounds decent but the economy option is maybe a little more appetizing. Does anyone have experience swapping? What about asking for business? One looked great.

There is no way you'll get a J mean when you are flying W. As for asking to swap with Y, I guess you could ask if there is any left after they serve Y but you'd likely wouldn't have a choice by then.
The expectation is basically that you should get the meal of the cabin you paid for, and certainly not from a higher one.
