British Airways Replaces Hot Breakfast in Club Europe on Eight Short Routes From January 7

The carrier cites time constraints following September trials.

Overview

  • Morning services to Amsterdam, Belfast City, Brussels, Dublin, Jersey, Manchester, Newcastle and Paris CDG will shift to a continental setup.
  • The new tray comprises a fresh fruit plate, yoghurt and a heated pastry in place of cooked options.
  • BA says the change eases delivery and lets crew spend more time with customers, and it has told outlets it is not a cost-cutting move.
  • Frequent-flyer sites and travel writers describe the shift as a downgrade that erodes a long-time differentiator on very short flights.
  • Hot breakfasts remain on the vast majority of short-haul routes, including Glasgow and Edinburgh, after mixed feedback during September trials.
