I am not sure why people are so desperate for a drink and food on such a short flight. It really isnt needed. trouble is people have grown to expect them rather than think do I really need or want.
I flew up London to Manchester on Monday night from leaving the runway at Heathrow to landing at manchester was 30 minutes the crew rushed round with drinks and snack which to me seemed a totally pointless exercise just because people expect it rather than need it.
