Argh! And this thread reports it's still chocolate chip on regular transcons. Ah well, have another EWR-SFO dinner flight next month; maybe I can manage to get to EWR on time

flying IAD-SEA on the 31st. Lunch will be offered, any idea what meal options will be offered?

Not sure if I should just eat at the LH or AF lounge instead. I do hope they offer a sundae though

Or the TK lounge. It's like EPCOT in that terminal.

Should be same menu as October IAD-SFO. I generally find the domestic F food to be decent and worth making a meal of.

Why? Salad dressing bottles, different entree choices, different salads than ex-Hubs.
I'm confident they are. It's not the the product is any different, it is that it is 3.5-5 hours old. It is clearly double catered, and I was told so by a FA on one of our returns.

Nope, I don't think so.

Look at this meal--

We never see this salmon, this salad, this salad dressing, or this bread/butter ex-USA.

What should I expect on my EWR - MCO tomorrow, departing 9pm, flight time 2:49? I think I will get a plated "snack"? Not just the basket?

UA 1851 - IAH to BWI (10/22/16) - Dinner flight.


Salad - Spinach+multi-colored peppers with honey mustard dressing
Nuts + Sam Adams Oktoberfest (great addition)
Main course - Beep tips and potatoes or Mac and cheese with Grilled chicken. Had the Mac and CHeese with chicken - it was amazing!

Great improvements in the meals!

The butter actually says "mantequilla" on it. Probably not flown in from New Jersey.

Whatever you say. Please advise who us catering, then. Show me a pic of a catering supplier against a UAL aircraft in CUN.

Lol, I hear you, but I'm saying that the mains, the hard product, I was told by an FA, was double catered. Regardless, Northbound stinks!
