Been on all my day time flights ?|
Normally as hard as a rock or liquid, but still ice cream y)

Same here. the only time I've missed it is if I've been snoozing


Like I said, not on mines. A Heathrow vs Gatwick config thing or something?

No, ice creams are available on daylight flights out of both Heathrow and Gatwick.

Do people perhaps consistently dream that they've eaten ice cream on their UC day time flights then? :D

Aha, I was thinking I couldn't read there...

So... Is it that if you ask you get one, and you don't you don't?

Is this another one of the things which should form a faq?

No everyone gets an ice cream. However if you are in the toilet or asleep when the tray of ice creams goes around, then just ask for one.

No ice creams were forthcoming on my recent UC day flight to LAX.... and I was looking forward to it too! Is it only on some routes?

What's worse is being in the loo when the wine service came round and the FSM deciding that the moment to dissapear was when I got back to my seat!

Didn't sleep, and they will have to have been quick dishing out and getting the evidence away if they'd caught me in the loo.

Do you think its possible that occasionally they don't? Fair enough that they should...

I definitely got offered an ice cream on my recent flight. I was actually asleep on the original round, but kindly offered later. I'm fact, I was offered ice cream twice plus cake ( sadly no eclairs!) lol

We had ice cream, plus more if we wanted on our last two UC day flights....and very nice it was too. ii)

I have been on flights on which no ice cream has come around - either it wasn't loaded, or the crew forgot, or both ...
