"No Soup for you Today….."

Well actually, it’s more like no meals, rolls or sandwiches for you if you fly British Airways after 10:00 a.m. from London Heathrow and your flight lasts less than two hours 30 minutes.

BA would like to help us all keep trim and healthy so passengers will instead be offered a biscuit or “snack bites” – I have visions of dog biscuits!

BA is also reviewing the range of free alcoholic drinks on short-haul flights in the hope of saving £22m a year. The onboard food and drink changes are due to take effect next month.  It does not affect short-haul passengers travelling in BA’s premium cabin or Club Europe, although the airline is making some cuts to what it serves on some shorter flights.

If you like your free BA breakfast, you’ll need to fly before 10:00 a.m. My flight is at 10:15 a.m. but lasts 2 hours 35 minutes, so in theory I should get fed?
