"The free food and drinks were never free. You paid for that stuff in the price of your ticket."
Well, sure. But one of the perks in business class has been a decent meal. And UAL's meals were usually superb. More than a few times, I've returned home from a trip thinking that the business-class meal was the best on the whole trip!
One more reason to question my loyalty to UAL, then. And one less reason to pay for business class.
I have to imagine that the savings in pretzels and business class meals will be more than offset by the loss of people like me who fly a lot and see less and less reason to stick with UA. I wish them well but will be looking around.

“Well, sure. “
Of course, but I love how they let the UAL get away with the lie that they were giving away “free” food and drinks all this time.
