We will be departing YYZ at 11:55pm for LHR (arriving 12 noon) via British Airways. We will be in business class. If you have flown this in the last couple months, can you tell me what the meal service was like? On my itenerary, it says, "beverage service". Will we not get a meal on board--evening or morning? Thanks

Hi ...

Not sure where YYZ is, but having flown back business class back from the states with BA, you get dinner with champagne, breakfast etc.

Not sure that you will get dinner on the plane, as you are leaving very late, but would expect breakfast & maybe brunch.

Also in the lounge beforehand you might be able to get dinner (free) - we did when coming back from Boston.

YYZ is Toronto.

We flew BA last year to Barcelona through Heathrow through Montreal. We were in World Traveller class (economy). We received drinks shortly after take-off, a very generous and delicious supper (chicken and pasta in cream sauce), with an additional bottle of wine, and then as we approached London, we received breakfast. You'll probably get something a bit fancier in business class (World Traveller Plus or Club World?), but you'll definitely get 2 meals.

Sorry, meant "from Montreal"!

Most of BA's overnight flights from N.America have a 'Sleeper Service' for Business Class. The meal service will take place in the lounge before departure, ostensibly to ensure that everyone onboard can get some shut-eye.

Actually the web site sez that many of the East Coast flights to London on BA offer meals in the lounge. On the West Coast overnight flights, they offer you sandwiches & other finger type foods in the lounge and a meal shortly after you take off, then most of the Business Class goes to sleep. They serve breakfast in the morning before you land.

Where is YYZ? Check BA's website & see what they will be serving. It should give you the straight poop.

The following applies to YYZ-LHR flights # BA098 and BA096(SAT only):
