It's very simple.  The hashgacha is entitled to disagree with the OU's view.

OU-certified meals have hamotzi bread, and the insert informs the passenger
of this fact, and advises that if washing is impractical then they should
not eat the bread, or save it for later.   And the OU comes in for regular
criticism, from those who want mezonos bread and don't want the OU making
that decision for them; from those who didn't bother to read the insert and
just assumed the bread to be mezonos, and now blame the OU for not having
anticipated their unfounded assumption; and from those who say that if the
bread can't be readily eaten with the meal then it shouldn't be there at all.
