@freckles for a short flight like your domestic one or Geneva it’s an entirely rational decision not to delay a flight pending delivery of catering. There are various routine operational reasons the catering might not have been loaded and it would be absurd to delay a short flight for that reason alone.
It is quite possible the catering deliberately wasn’t loaded for your flight, one of many such judgement calls ops people are making all day long. The timeliness of the flight is far more important.
You imply that you might have preferred to delay everybody, get the catering loaded and for you to receive compensation as a result. If correct, I’m lost for words at that sort of thinking.
