Well that got your attention didn't it

What I am referring to is the customisation of amenities offered on specific routes.

On a recent trip in F to the Middle East I was tempted by a date enrobed almond, washed down with Arabic coffee. Our golden arches friends have similar geographically specific items, so It got me wondering what other routes had specific offerings... Do tell...

I really should have seen that one coming after my uncle used variations of the same 'gag' ad nauseam in the Middle East recently!

Slippers, chopsticks, 'local' style food on NRT at least. I refuse to rise to the male FA offering a date pun...

We don't have FAs on British Airways! We have cabin crew.

BA also has cabin crew at certain bases ie SIN who will specifically introduce themselves after the CSD announcement.

OK, you've raised expectations in your title, but can you manage expectations and deliver on outcomes? Do I really want to know!

Pye in the Sky? Kiss n'Tell more like (or is it Kiss and Run?)

You are rapidly becoming fodder for the Jeremy Kyle Show. Bet that's one of HIDDY's favourite shows as he is usually breakfasting when it comes on.

Actually Pet, I thought "Why a date and not a Peach?" so I was very much on the right lines wasn't I?

So for entertaining me I am upgrading your Muccihood to Gold hairbrush with all the perks and benefits accruing with immediate effect.

Did you swallow?

Was he standing over you and were you sitting down to study his offering?

GBOAC has refused to state exactly what did not rise to the occasion.

Perhaps you should try AA and their "would you like a roll?" cultural offering on a trans-AAtlaantic?

Did the breakfast service come with any crumpet offerings?

Too many people sitting at their computers obsessed with mastication on this internet site. At least you do not need a credit card!
