Where to begin? First, if it says dinner then a dinner should have been served. Airline screwed up and that is certainly not a first.

Now, that we're inflight and a meal cannot be whipped up out of pretzels and vodka (it could for me but that's another story) let's examine the other comments made.

Surely you can't believe a meal on a U.S. domestic aircraft is worth a couple hundred dollars.

I don't know what you perceived from the OP's statement but my perception is that he/she was indeed upset the flight attendant was eating and he wasn't.

Bottom line for me is I agree it's wrong to publish that a meal will be served, especially in First Class and that's one of the main reasons for buying the ticket, and then not have it. Borders on false adverstising. But once you've been given the bad news, don't take it out on an employee who has no control whatsoever over the catering habits of their employer.
