The main meal doesn’t look very different from the disgrace served in Polaris westbound from LHR.

Doubly so as the current Polaris/PP meal is sub-standard even for PO, let alone Polaris.

PremiumPlus catering ex-USA right now is the same as the premium transcons (the butternut squash ravioli or Thai chicken) which is different than the jumbo ravioli, salmon, or short ribs in Polaris.
From Asia/Europe/Africa/Australia/Israel back to the USA, the PP options are two of three options in Polaris (usually the pasta and chicken, not the red meat).

These days PP meals pass for reasonable. It’s Polaris and Y that are truly subpar. Unforgivable for Polaris. Kind of expected in Y

I'm usually defending UA's food service, but the PP breakfast on a 16 hour flight to Sydney, seen at 20:46 at this video, is one of the worst things I have ever seen. That's too little food for breakfast after 15 hours in the air in regular economy, let alone premium economy. UA needs to do better.

Disgusting. The rock “croissant” should be banished from humankind and those yogurts are far far too sweet to be edible.

It is just sad to see Polaris and PP meals are the same.
I recently flew NH regional Asia flight in its brand new business cabin. Wow... that catering on the NH regional flights puts UA meals to shame.
Is UA management embarassed seeing what they are serving?

that Aussie breakfast looks to be a miscater (I hope), as even flights to Europe at least get a hot domestic F breakfast sandwich
