I was kinda hoping for a Thanksgiving meal today (EWR-NRT) but it’s the standard Polaris menu.
Members who have been here a while will recall @PremEx’s mini Christmas Tree that graced many a galley over the years.

I flew fom London to San Fransisco on Thanksgiving, and as I usually do when travelling on a holiday, took along a couple of bags of chocolates for the flight attendants.
Turned out to be an all London based crew, but it didn't matter. The level of service on board that day was suoerb, a truly personal service. Mind you, it helped that there was only 35 in economy.

I've taken the last flight home on Xmas Eve with my family every year for the past 10 years. I think everyone from TSA to the FAs are as festive as you are, so I always try to be extra happy/say Happy Holiday's/ etc. Sometimes I bring them treats too (especially in first, which is super easy to upgrade to on Xmas Eve btw).
