If you want any Economy class (Euro Traveller) cabin service on British Airways short-haul flights it needs to be pre-booked via an app in the airline’s latest cost cutting move.

The only nutrition now available is a complimentary bottle of water and snack.  What is available on-line via an app is the Speedbird Café, a gourmet range by Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge. It is named after the airline’s call-sign, itself a concession to BOAC when it was effectively taken over by BEA in 1974.

EasyJet offers what it calls its “Bistro” selection on board, Ryanair a “meal deal”.  You can pre-order your meal at the Jet2 website; if you don’t there is also a wide range of snacks, meals and drink options for purchase on board the aircraft.

All the UK airlines are now cashless.

BTN contacted British Airways press office twice, asking what was the minimum cut-off time for ordering, without response.
