Cost cutting? No more guava juice.
Well as most here know, MH doesn't serve alcohol in business on short flights. I used to opt for guava juice on those flights. Until today.. Did two flights and on both there was no guava juice. Both times some lame excuse about "not loading on board"... Yes, I noticed!
Have other people observed this as well, or am I just unlucky today? I kinda suspect this is yet another cost cutting measure.. Let's see.

Caterer may have been facing supplier issues or whatever. I faced worse issues like the satay was not uploaded ... and it wasnt a cost cutting outcome.

The FA on my fourth flight without guava juice could confirm guava juice has been discontinued on narrow body planes.... Only available on wide bodies from now on.
Seems the new CEO has got his priorities sorted...

I'm not sure how strictly it's enforced since I've never done it (or seen it happen) but officially, it's not allowed.

That was surprising. Always ordered one when I am in the 737 J-class. I liked the guava juice but I always thought it taste exactly like https://eshop.tesco.com.my/groceries...cts/7070377278 which you can see, is not very expensive..
