Qantas Business Class meals & menus

[milehighclub]

There's a few 737 international flights that apparently can't be double catered properly (according to a fairly recent AFF article), so I wonder how much extra catering could have been put into the 737's galleys.

The issue isn't that it can't be double catered, the problem is that 737 don't have chilled stowages.

Well, that just compounds a problem like HBA, as it means any catering that could possibly be left on an aircraft overnight in order to service the first flights of the next morning cannot be chilled or refrigerated (unless somehow the terminal has such a facility to chill carts overnight).

Kind of begs belief how QF thought it was operationally sound to consider these routes when something like catering couldn't be very well planned out. Perhaps it's more important to offer the connection / service than to do so at optimum quality (i.e. people would rather have the flight operating than none at all).

Sounds silly but I'm so tempted to make a sortie to HBA and try these early morning flights to see what they offer up.
