I don't recall ever having to pay for food. Sure, if you divide the total number of calories by the price of the ticket, it becomes a pretty expensive meal... but in general, the food is "free" with purchase of ticket
Well you'd be mistaken. If you specifically request NO MEAL when you pay for your ticket they'll usually take off the cost of the meal, which on our last holiday was UKP 20 per person. Do you REALLY need a meal on a sub 3 hour flight? You won't starve. In any case, we were sat with others who had also opted out of the meal and it was still possible to get a free meal if there were any spares going provided you were quick to harrang the steward[ess].
I can't see why they chose 2014. Looking at the orbit simulation, it seems to cross Earth's orbit roughly every 14 months. It's not going anywhere further away anytime soon is it? A little wobble of that orbit every now and again caused by other stray objects could easily bring it closer again surely.
