'Full' catering not assured

I was thinking this and maybe its either the majority of the cabin get food poisoning but the pilots are ok or the pilots get sick and the pax are asked, "Does anyone know how to fly a plane?"

Certainly was my hope every time I boarded a plane as a kid.

Happy ending: last night I caught the 8pm from Bris > Syd, upgraded over phone +4 hours ahead.

In 2C and the load was 7/8. Six of us ate, and we all got what we wanted. Mine was a tomato soup with added chicken - and it was delicious. Cheese as dessert, great! Plenty of chardy poured, can't fault the service.

Arriving back the taxi rank was full so I walked over to Qantas which was deserted. Seems VA has a batch of arrivals late whereas QF do not?

To ice the cake, VA emailed me a response to my complaint (subject of this thread) with a goodwill offering of 10,000 points.

So I am happy.
