Hello!

The new PE menu hasn't been posted yet, hopefully one of the v-flyers who have flown since 1st Sept will kindly post it once flown.

Looking forward to seeing the UC and PE offerings too!

Cal :)

I heard the same rumour. I just hope it isn't like the last time that there was a change of suppliers and UC and PE were subjected to the same menu for God knows how long :0

Returning from SFO on Thursday there was no new menu in UC (same as the outbound) but new wines and old wine list.

It's all a bit disjointed if you ask me, management ad hoc style, but that seems to be the going rate at the moment.

So throw away months of menu planning and hack off some of your regular J pax?

Surely better to wait until the next cycle to try and go one better than BA than merely follow?

I'm glad there's another fan of this out there!

I can remember a few years ago when the UC menu didn't change for 6 months because there were changes pending. IIRC one of the items on the menu was pea mash which became known on VF as "irradiated mash". :o)

It strikes me that something similar could be happening.

Alignment of meal supplier/menu choices of an alliance partner?

:D

This was the same menu I enjoyed in July from MAN-MCO so thanks for confirming the menu has not yet changed.
