My question is that if I have a flight that is in the middle of the day I would serve lunch and dinner.  But than going back it might star in the morning so breakfast and lunch. How do you deal with a situation like that. 

Also, when I try to make a 5 star IFS for my business class during long hauls it appears I basically have to have everything selected. But when I see my max passenger profit it is down $400. No one is going to eat 3 versions of 3 meals and 6 snacks. How do you deal with that?

Right, but you're still going to have to stock all 3 options with surplus which will be fed to the crew and the leftovers chucked out, so it's not really a matter of, if the pax will eat 3 choices on 3 meals with 6 snacks. Also, you're always gonna be down on profit if you offer 5* IFS.

The way I do it is I only offer 5 star service on long and med routes where I receive more than $800 profit per passenger. Therefore be still profitable

This is just another question that goes along with this...

I have done operation from London Heathrow to Washington since the being of the game. I have 4 star IFS for economy, 5 star IFS for business/first, and 5 star IFE for everyone. I also have the same price as the guy how just started operations (who happes to have red IFS and be alot smaller than my airline but somehow he left me with a little over 1/4 for the market share. 

So my question is does IFS affect the market share at all?  Also, can someone explain this to me please

Superior IFS compared to the competition means that the passengers are generally willing to pay more to fly you in AE, but in ae, this amount is very small (anywhere from nothing to $10) so if you're just aiming for profit, 1* IFS is the way to go.

I am rich so I wanna get some IFS (the meals thing and pillows) to my airline routes because of increasing competition that pushed me from 10th place to 11th place

However when I try making the IFS they said existing flights will not be applied to so I will have to manually go to each of them. May I know how to just add the IFS to all of them in just a click or it will take me too much time as i have 45 different routes and 79 747s
