In-flight meal on dreamliner

[lorrdean]

Due to fly on Friday to Barbados to go on Britannia. I was wondering if anyone knew what the in-flight meal was?

If you are flying economy would recommend you pack a few sandwiches as the food is generally poor quality. Long flight to have stomach cramps.

Do they let you through security with packed sandwiches?

Hi,as an educated guess,yes as long as the filling is not a paste of some sort,cheers,Brian. ps you could always buy them airside.

Best to buy them in Boots, Starbucks or W H Smith once you have gone through security.

Thats what we do, we usually get a meal deal in Boots.

Husband wont eat airline meals and last year by the time they got to me there was no choice of meal left and only pasta which I dont like. So its worth having something available even if you dont eat it and just throw it away.

Hi, We flew back from Barbados this morning on a Dreamliner. The first meal was a chicken & mushroom pie, potatoes and veg, roll, cheese and biscuits, & carrot cake. The second meal was a breakfast - omelette, sausage, beans and potatoes. In my humble opinion the food was quite nice! [emoji106]

Can anyone tell us what food is served on the outbound flight to Barbados?

[soobs]

Usual Thomson airline food, we prefer TC the food is better, the menu is prepared by James Martin and the best airline food I have tasted better than Emirates.

 

We fly in December and on a TOM flight so will be buying the meal deal!!

Yes - but what constitutes 'the usual Thomson' stuff? I'm assuming we'll be served one standard airline meal (lunch) but seeing as it's a 9 hour flight is there an additional snack or meal (afternoon tea perhaps) ?

Same as the inbound I would have thought.

Hi,that sounds 10 times better than the crap we had on Virgin from MIA to LHR the other week,cheers,Brian.

So I can expect breakfast to be served mid-afternoon as we approach Barbados can I?......

Usually on Barbados flights you have dinner and a light snack similar to afternoon tea as your two meals.

On the return flight an evening meal and then some type of breakfast dish prior to landing in the morning, if really early it may not be quite as described above.

 

Food is much better than we had two years ago on BA. I was embarrassed to be British with the pathetic offering we had on an overnight flight from Miami back into Heathrow. I dread to think what other Nationality flyers thought.

Thanks everyone for your replies. Will update on the menu when I can at the weekend :)

Just checked my blog and the last TOM flight we went on we had:

a choice of chicken pasta or beef curry but they had no curry left!!

started was a small bowl of melon and water melon

pasta

small roll with butter

cheese and tuc biscuits

 

before landing a pannini thing could not describe what was in it but it said it was cheese, a plastic cup of water

 

both meal had a choice of tea or coffee.

usual in-flight food as said, the TC food was much better my blog just says better than most so think I only recorded the TOM flight because it's wasn't impressive.

Doesn't really bother me as the food on ship is what I am looking forward to.

Thanks Soobs

Update on the menu.

On the flight out the meal was roast chicken dinner, bread roll, chocolate pudding, crackers and cheese with a tub of water and a chocolate. Tea and coffee. Then later on we had a savoury cheese roll.a scone with jam and butter,tea or coffee.

On the return we had chicken and ham pie, bread roll, crackers and cheese, carrot cake the water and tea or coffee. Just before landing we got breakfast which consisted of sausage, omelett, beans hash brown. Tea or coffee.

Hope this helps

That sound's reasonably tasty. I look forward to the meals and it seems to break the monotony of the flight.

Not long now :)
