    I was just wondering if anyone knows what is provided and by whom on these flights? I have seen some amazing Menus when BA/BOAC/BEA has been chartered for Royal Flights in the past (BA Museum). But I can find nothing online about/pics, etc of any such meals on RAF flights.

    In some contrast:

    When royals fly BA long-haul the BA’s fine dining menu reads: “We’ve worked with top chefs, suppliers, and nutritionists to create ‘Height Cuisine’. The result is the finest food and drink that will give you the fullest flavours at altitude,” all paired perfectly with a selection of wines.

    Prince William and Duchess Kate are known to feast on (instagram photos from crew)yy show everything from elegant canapes to fresh scones with clotted cream and jam, seared fillet of Aberdeen Angus steak and even baked cod with lobster and saikyo miso.
    Hello magazine *who ever they are !) mentioned a budget of Pounds 10,000 for each flight – it sounds a lot
