Thanks for letting us know.
I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to sleep tonight

Just thinking of you.

So glad we all helped.

As you are on a diet I hope you opted for the fruit.

Lol that ends on the day of the holiday. May resume on return.

For Long Haul the veggie special meal at the moment is a rather good looking Spinach Veggie Curry - passenger next to me pre ordered it a few weeks back....

The usual Fillet Steak offering on the menu is pure pot luck if it comes out good, or over cooked boot leather.

Normal BA club Europe meals are very good.

Really?

That's not my experience, although I haven't flown with them this year.

The breakfasts are identical to club world from memory.

Then unless Club World has changed recently they're not good, let alone very good.

You know, your posts do have an odd ring to them. First you post a statement that simply does not ask anything, then you get ratty with those who point that out.

Once it's been established that you are trying to find out what the breakfasts are like, you then make posts that clearly imply that you already know, as above.

THEN, despite apparently looking for help in your OP, you subsequently make posts that clearly imply that you make this sort of trip regularly, which begs the question of why you asked in the first place. "We use air miles, family of four for price of a seat etc."

No wonder one might think you're posting to let us all know of your ability to fly club, for what's that worth.

Oh well, takes all sorts.

Actually, yeah, what Realist said....

And anyhow, they are not the same, varies from route to route. The breakfast (currently) is different if you fly into LHR from the Far East which is a Full English (not all that good), than the US which is lighter, with optional Bacon Rolls.

If you fly from NY (only done EWR, but JFK is the same apparently) they put on a light meal as they class it as a sleeper server and they expect you to have eaten in the lounge where they put on better food (was build your own Vietnamese noodles last year)

Lol we book very early and use air miles so actually costs us barely the cost of one economy seat for a family of 4 in Club.

Worst I've no idea how to leverage frequent flyer and early purchase schemes ever response.

I'd actually be really keen to understand how you managed this. Are you talking about Club World or Club Europe, because with Club world getting 4 seats on any flight with miles alone is a real struggle. I have nearly 1 million avios & 2 companion vouchers and rarely get the chance to use them with the family on anything other than club Europe, which seems pointless. Also, where are you actually going?

Club Europe.- Sofia and I booked up pretty much 12 months ago/as soon as they came out.


Have only done club world once so far once the kids are older will be doing more long haul

There's always availability on india flights.....

When I went to tokyo in January there were more than 4 seats available in first, we actually had the whole of first to ourselves, that's because it was bloody cold there I guess!
