I am a couch potato 24/7 and I need way more than 1000Kcal a day LOL. We are just use to big American portion meals here

Yeah, but considering a flight is about half to a bit more than half a day, 1000 is fine, and another 1000 for the rest of the day

There was a new option at the Haneda Lounge last night. Grilled fish with bouillabaisse style sauce. It was very nice
(we should create a specific thread for the lounges in Haneda Seems there is none)

With this and then inflight meal, you have exceeded 1000kcal per 10 hours

Had a night flight to Singapore, so had no food on the flight at all. Optimising sleeping time.

Or just questioning the lack of a rebooking waiver.

I think the risk of needing a rebooking is down around zero degrees Kelvin.

so one for lack of rebooking waiver, one for the possibility of JL proactively (and inhumanly) rebook me on AA, and one for lack of EC261 level of compensation and penalty anything I missed?

How is this possible. Still 4 hours to go and they told me there’s no more oolong tea left!? Is this cost cutting or the result of switching to bigger glasses?
