Tale of the crisps packet

[Montrealbound]

Ijust boarded flight BA 95, London-Montreal. I boarded at just before 6pm, give or take a few minutes. As I sat down I requested the crew member handing out the drinks for a packet of Crisps, to which he replied “ we have them but you can only get them after takeoff”. When I requested him again as I was famished he repeated the same thing with a mildly aggressive look. I should say that I am traveling business class and the crisps were delivered an hour and half later and only when I asked another crew member, who was really nice about it and got me some crisps immediately.

Now I know we capitalists have our reckoning coming, but until then, shouldnt there be better service than this in business class?

I was neutral and did not show my annoyance in any way and thanked the lady who brought me the crisps profusely.

His attitude seemed quite Dickensian, definitely patronizing.

Thoughts & prayers with you at this difficult time

God I remember annoying people in business when I used to fly with work. The benefit is noise cancelling headphones so I didn’t have to deal with hearing the level of entitlement.

No way did they not give you any pretzels/some other snack with drinks v soon after take/off, almost always within 30 minutes.

That poor flight attendant, having to deal with you for the whole flight

But it was after take off when you got the crisps?

Can afford to fly business class but can't afford to buy something to eat in the airport... 🤨

Take your own snacks on next time, so you can eat whenever you want. The flight attendants have specific times for in-flight services and have more important things to do prior to take off then running after you.

I'm sorry for your loss 😔.

Reverse. If you are indeed genuine, you’re an arse. How rude of you. You were told you couldn’t have something until after take off and you threw a paddy.

Surely you wouldn't be famished because you would have gotten a snack in the departure lounge? The business class one ALWAYS has decent snacks and drinks laid on.
For that reason I'm struggling to believe this post.

Famished at take off but left it an hour and a half to ask again? Were you still on the tarmac at this point?

This makes no sense because… departure lounge.

Thoughts and prayers. Can we do anything? 💐

Food service doesn’t start until after take off. If you’re really that desperate for a bag of crisps you could’ve got some from the business class lounge or the shops in the terminal.

Fucking hell mate. Calm down.

Evening, all. We've seen this OP to the door now as we had a feeling in our waters that this wasn't how this really played out.

You poor soul, I’ll pray for you.

Thoughts, prayers, and an unmumsnetty hug..... I hope you're complaining and asking for compensation after this difficult and trying time xxx

Very bizarre message, but with very precise information.

It reads like a secret message hidden in plain sight? Who might be interested in knowing a specific flight number? Is Montrealbound a spy, or having an affair?

Bizarre

😂😂😂😂😂

Oh dear, seen to the door by MNHQ.

Reminds me of that joke air stewards were
alleged to have said to naughty kids “why don’t you ask your parents if you can play outside”. 😀

😂😂😂

Perfect 🤩
