not quite what i expected... |
|---|
Travelled premier standard to Brussels (first class). trains very comfy but tired. seat very comfy and reclines to a good angle. food was dreadful. Lunch. Starter was 2 prawns on a skewer on a bed of cold ( almost frozen) char grilled vegetables. dish was smaller than a saucer. Main course: SAME AS STARTER!!!!!. Desert: strawberry mousse. i asked the stewardess if this was right. she said it was a mistake but that happens quite a lot, and she couldnt do anything about it. I enquired why the bread roll was frozen, and she stated thats how they store them.
I think my expectations were set too high. I expected the first class service to match the name, but its obviously premium economy. first class seat with a sub standard snack thrown in.I will travel premier standard again as the seat was lush, but i will bring my own food on board ( a suggestion the stewardess made ). The drink was unlimited if you asked for it, to be fair.

We travelled with a vegetarian. She'd booked her meal specifically - but they'd forgotten to load it on the train for her.
