Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

It's been a little while since my last VA J flight, but from the photos posted it appears that a side plate is no longer provided for the cheese and crackers.

I've only had that maybe twice (probably flying PER-SYD) as someone who flies the Golden Triangle often. I prefer it without a plate as I usually take the cheese and crackers home with me.

It's been a little while since my last VA J flight, but from the photos posted it appears that a side plate is no longer provided for the cheese and crackers. Not a major issue I suppose, but just another subtle degradation of the J experience. I like to remove the cheese and cracker from the plastic and put them on the plate (I also remember when that was how they were served). I'm pragmatic enough to realise that it is a cost saving which doesn't materially affect the meal.
It looks very budget to me the whole plate. Rex looked better served on a cardboard tray
 
Basically we wanted the plate removed from tray in AM when it wasn't needed so they decided to remove side plate in general which we didn't want
