How common is it for FR to run out of food or drink ?.This happened to a relative on FR6653 AGP-EDI on Tuesday and I have read about it on forums elsewhere . Are planes provisioned at the start of te round trip or at turnround . I have never heard of this on any other carrier ? Perhaps it's a cost saving measure to reduce waste .
Are FR pilots ever instructed to reduce speed to save fuel on last rotation of the day - this flight always used to be early but rarely recently .
