BA - ?change to special meal availability?

[brockenspectre]

Hi - hope someone can help me here. I have a Club World flight to TPA booked for later this month. I am a lowly Blue Exec Club member (have been for about 25yrs!) and have had my requirement for a gluten-free meal set up in my personal info for ever.

Earlier this evening I was checking my booking online to confirm arrival time (for friends who are meeting me) and saw that the option to select a special meal was greyed out, as in "not available". I called the Exec Club who said that my requirement for a GF meal is in the booking although it is not viewable by me, apparently! Having heard a rumour that BA will be curtailing its special meal options I am wondering if I need take my own food or can I rely on BA to advise me that it can no longer cater to my needs?

Thanks in advance to any who help!
