Some observartions on Tray usage for Short-Haul New Business Class

[9V-JKL]

Flew SQ861 HKG-SIN in C about 10 days back and noticed that meal service had partial tray service.

From an earlier TR by 9V-SWP back in Dec'06; http://www.sqtalk.com/forums/showpos...3&postcount=6; the tray was still use for the main course until the dessert course.
10 days back, the tray was removed after the starter and table re-laid for the main course.
This was my 1st time on the new C on this short route so perhaps I had been missing the change. Not complaining but just an observation

From what I know, they have indeed done this since the beginning of new J on SIN-HKG-SIN flights.
IIRC, HKG is the sole exception from the regular new J service.

Sorry if I was not clear. I meant to say that:

Dec '06: Tray was used for starter + main
May '09: Tray only for starter. Main is tray-less

With this was wondering was there a change in process

My apologies... you were clear, but I was reading too fast!
Perhaps there is an update in the J service process then.
