They fly better once they've hatched.

IIRC BA used to make scrambled eggs freshly for premium pax using the oven. Cabin crew would pour eggs that were already shelled and whisked, from a carton into a dish and bake it, stirring at specified intervals.

This was a different culinary experience from Y pax who had already prepared eggs heated up in their foil tray.

Turkish used to fry eggs to order for breakfast in C class on long haul.

I think the problem with Eggs on A/C is that generally its an omelette or scrambled Egg, which dry out and are rather taste less. Hence cooked breakfast is something I avoid on A/C like Helol.

The omelette I referred to before was extremely scrummy!

The above menu from my first ever long haul flight on 28.06.1978, BA267, LHR-BDA (G-AWNH)...in economy! How the world (and BA) has changed. Can I remember the meal? Not really if i'm honest. But the awe of walking onto my first 747 and the smell of jet fuel, combined with the warm, humid afternoon air when walking down the steps at Kindley Field made a big impression on the then 13 year old me.

Who remembers Trust House Forte making up ham and spam salad with a lettuce leaf, tomato and a dollop of fizzy coleslaw served up on a Dan Air Comet!

When BD were trying to boost their reputation for Biz: In 1998 (I think) on LHR-EDI they served a VERY good Full English Breakfast.

I was a BA flight last year in Club LHR-ABZ after having just flown in from Perth Western Australia. I was in 1C, sitting there thinking about the nice hot breakie soon to be served when one of the last PAX to board was a lady and her 10-11 year old son. I heard her tell the crew her son was highly allergic to peanuts so no peanuts were aloud within 1o meters of him. The crew then spoke to the Capt who didn't want to risk it so ALL inflight catering was removed, Club and Econ !!

The crew asked the flying Karen (mum) if she had informed BA at the time of booking, "No, why should I" was her reply

Impress to inflate
I have unfortunately come across the same situation a number of times on A/C. You do wonder given how much peanut oil is used and is around, how their children survive. One of these flights was into Bangkok and I did wonder if the young boy would survive the night ! In a previous company we had someone with that allergy, but he just carried an EpiPen and never made a fuss about anything other than when he was eating himself when he obviously avoided any Peanuts or oils thereof.

Are allergies something you grow out of? It always seems to be children that you hear of suffering allergies, except hayfever which extends into adulthood.

My Swissair air hostess girlfriend was (is) called Karen. My niece has an even more unfortunate name, Alexa. She's constantly being ordered to do things.
