  First time in a long while I’ve not read an HfP article first thing in the morning!

  Rob is just taking some time off after his 17 day Dubai trip! Give him some space 😉

• Mouse says:

  Probably building the suspense for the big BA food story!

  • Baji Nahid says:

    8 Jan8 January 05:50

    hahahahaha have you seen the menu though?

    • Mouse says:

      8 Jan8 January 06:00

      Doesn’t look like a huge change to be honest

      • Baji Nahid says:

        8 Jan8 January 06:25

        £2 for a bottle of water

        • Mouse says:

          8 Jan8 January 06:32

          But it’s been blessed by Tom Kerridge so it’s holy water. Bargain.

  Just read this in the BA terms and conditions that I wasn’t aware of
  The price quoted excludes a surcharge of 1% of the cost of your booking, up to £20.00 per passenger that may be levied if you pay by corporate card or with PayPal.

  • John says:

    Unlikely to affect most people

  • Andrew says:

    Always been the case that if you select the card type as a corporate card you get charged the old credit card surcharge which until a couple of years ago personal customers based in the U.K. also did.

  Groundhog Day? What I miss…?

• Mark says:

  Where are today’s articles?
  I blame Brexit everyone said this type of thing would happen.

  • Craig says:

    8 Jan8 January 07:01

    They are in quarantine.

    • Ian M says:

      8 Jan8 January 07:13

      They’re not in quarantine, but even if they were why would that mean no articles?

      • Craig says:

        8 Jan8 January 07:14

        I meant the articles.

        • Ian M says:

          8 Jan8 January 07:15

          Ah haha

  • Andrew says:

    8 Jan8 January 07:06

    And no Amex offers today either — right dull day this has turned out to be! And all that hype about who the new buy onboard company is – turned out to just be Tom Kerridge – so basically a random catering company will be making his sandwich recipes.

    • Craig says:

      8 Jan8 January 07:16

      You can come and stand in the cold for 12 hours with me if you want. Another day herding cars and octogenarians, 310 vaccines yesterday with very close to 100% turnout. Particularly impressed by Mr B, 93, walked a third of a mile in -2 with two walking sticks!

      • Yuff says:

        Mr B deserves a medal and a cup of tea
        👏🏻

        Craig great to see someone making a personal decision based on what is good for everyone not just what they want. Happy to be a part of HFP when it includes people like you.

      Blimey who knew sandwiches had recipes.

  • Chris says:

    8 Jan8 January 07:32

    No articles today in EU either, we normally have to wait until 7am for them. I hear in brexit Britain boris gets them to you for 6am 😉

• DJ says:

  Also the HfP website has been very slow lately!

  • Rob says:

    8 Jan8 January 08:15

    We had fixed that yesterday. However it seems part of the fix also screwed up the publishing schedule!

    Excellent news that the U.K. is finally taking its border seriously and hopefully deters leisure travellers at this time.
