My first scheduled airline flight, around1969. London to Glasgow....I was stunned to be served a hot meal!...even if i'd missed breakfast, it was still only an hour, tops,to wait .
learned the lesson and skipped lunch prior to the evening flight back, a week later.
Wouldn't have bothered if there was none at all.......flew Liverpool Limoges about 5 years ago (RYR) managed to go a whole 90 minutes or so, without food or drink
