Overview
- The change begins January 7, 2026 for Club Europe breakfast service on select short-haul routes.
- Affected city pairs include Amsterdam, Belfast, Brussels, Dublin, Jersey, Manchester, Newcastle and Paris.
- Multiple hot choices are being replaced by a single cold option of a fruit plate, yogurt and a heated pastry.
- British Airways says the shift is intended to streamline delivery and give crews more time with customers.
- All other short-haul business routes keep the full hot breakfast, as frequent-flyer communities and analysts criticize the cut as a cost-driven downgrade that erodes a prior catering advantage over many European rivals.
