RE:IAD-CDG food service
Not an isolated incident. I flew sfo-iad-cdg and back Jan 11/16 in C. Both ways, the appetizer course had been eliminated. Lettuce and veggie salads preceded the main course; no shrimp, etc. The warmish nuts did contain other objects from what appeared to be the RCC bar mix that comes in blue baggies. The only improvement was the champagne this time was Pol Roger.

tisk tisk, cheapen an already poor international product.
Shame on you UA. People ask me why I want to route thru FRA to go to LHR? LH and SQ of course! |

I just flew 940 ORD-FRA in C (am sitting in FRA awaiting my next flight) and we received both the 'normal' warm nuts as well as an appetizer with smoked salmon. It was very good. I also had appetizers on my earlier flights 12/28 ORD-FRA and 1/7 FRA-ORD. I only experienced varying levels of service from satisfactory to excellent. |

Duplicate. Sorry. |
The DCA-ORD warm nuts today had Spanish peanuts. I was pleasantly surprised. Haven't seen peanuts on an airplane in a long time.

Interesting to read of yet another cutback, when Business Traveler magazine reports on their website, that UA will be introducing an improved in flight meal service on their European flights.

Yesterday (1/20) on CDG-IAD in C, the warm nuts cup contained cashews and little sesame crackers, not a mixture of nuts. The sesame crackers had a coating that made them stick together when warm.
Also, it seems that the starter course no longer has a smoked salmon plate. I noticed this in both directions. I really look forward to the current nut mix. It is the soft product that is UA's international J failing and yet they keep screwing it downwards. |

I am flying that flight soon. I hope I am that lucky. I don't like the walnuts and pistachios rank right up there with cashews. I will report back.
