Depends entirely on which class you are flying in.If you are in the basic economy class then you pay for everything.If you choose to upgrade to economy plus or business you will have a choice of meal chosen online approximately 10 days prior to departure via an e mail sent to you.you can also pick your seat if you are quick.Drinks,soft and alchoholic are also included and are very generous.Beware though if you are driving at the other end.Inflight entertainment comprises of overhead screens on the 767 300s.
Another point to bring to your attention is the fact if you choose to upgrade then your luggage allowance goes up considerably.Maybe important if you are flying to Sanford and coming back with all those Disney souvenirs. drinks are not overly expensive.

Take it i have to pay for headsets. What i would like to know is what kind of seating will economy have. Surely some silent lamb must have an experiance of GSM's long haul product.

Check out this website ... it has some reviews of flyglobespans longhaul flights: http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/flygspan.htm

As for the longhaul, if you look at their website, you'll find a detailed list of what each class of pax will receive. I've heard that Business Class is excellent, with gourmet meals, individually prepared, individual IFE, and complementary drinks throughout the flight on request. You are waited on hand and foot. Premium is IFE, Full meal service, complementary drinks throughout flight. No-Frills is more or less pay for everything yourself onboard.

There isn't as much detail as i thought. No information on IFE, it just says it is provided. Im wanting to know audio choice and maybe movie choice.
Is it also possible to find cabin shots of the GSM 767s.

The IFE changes often so as to keep it "fresh." You have one current relase movie outbound and a selection of short programmes. Same for inbound sector. Also a choice of audio channels made for GSM.

Current IFE movies on the GLA - SFB is

The Devil Wears Prada & Robots...along with entertainments programmes like The Simpsons etc etc


SFB - GLA

X-Men 3 & Fever Pitch again with short programmes.

Business Class get all three on different channels which rotate throughout the flight.

The movies change every 8 - 10 weeks.

Audio entertainment on GLA - SFB is in a radio format, which is done by real radio.

Wonder how many audio channels there is. I wish GSM had more detail about the services onboard like MYT do.
