Is it really that tight? How do other airlines manage?

Perhaps a “full meal” in the a BOB format may work in a stackable boxed format vs a ready laid tray? And they could always do a “sold out”...

G-CIVW was my last upper deck (BOS-LHR last November), and a substitute for what was originally my first A380 flight. Good to see her preserved!

A fond farewell.

They’ll fly again, albeit to a final resting place. I wonder if they’ll mark those occasions (like Virgin’s last Manchester departure) or even auction seats! Put me down for a 52B...
