Nobody is going to feel bad for people flying first class and relaxing in airline lounges, but you're spot on explaining how those experiences have been diminished since Covid began.
You used to be able to pick your hot meal the day before your flight, but now because I prefer to sit towards the back of first class I just have to hope that my preferred cold boxed sandwich is available by the time the flight attendant gets to me to ask what I want. And it's not like they're both good choices (to me, at least) with one being a decently nice sandwich with meat or fish, and the other being a vegetarian meal with fruits and nuts.
I realize how petty that all must sound to someone who doesn't fly first class, but it's legitimately annoying.
- sokoloff 5y agoMany carriers used to take orders in FEBO order (from Front on Even flight numbers, from the Back on Odd flight numbers). Then some switched to an East-West or North-South order to determine front vs back for those who didn’t pre-select 24 hours ahead.
- jaywalk 5y agoInteresting, I guess I never paid attention before because I always pre-selected. And since Covid, it's always been front to back on every flight I've been on.
