Crumbs! I missed that one.

I wonder how VA thought about jumping on the bandwagon with offering focaccia rather than just a normal bread roll or a slice of warmed bread.

Except maybe Italian carriers (which I haven't flown before) and possibly SQ and QR, I have never seen any other carrier offer focaccia (especially sliced, cf. individual) until QF did it (and for all cabin classes).

Theres a sweet focaccia for breakfast floating around somewhere and it made sense to have savoury focaccia too

Completely made up. Yes they can serve alcohol on morning flights. The demand is obviously low so they don't proactively do it.

Off topic.
There's a sign in the Qantas Club (Brisbane domestic).
Liquor licence permits serving alcohol from 0500, however alcohol won't be served before midday (IIRC)

Not sure if this right thread for this - but:

Currently onboard 702 just about to push back - we spent 4hrs in lounge today - cannot believe the rubbish offered as food today - what a disgrace.

As for the wine - zero reqt to need to enforce RSA - Shiraz and Cab Sav both totally undrinkable

Agree on the VA lounges, they need a lot of love (and renovation). But responsible service of alcohol? How on earth does that come into a play when VA lounges don't serve spirits and the wine is largely undrinkable (+ bar only opens after 12pm)?

Chicken and leek dish on my recent SYD-PER flight in the evening. It was a nice meal.
