Have a flight tmr, can we bring food on board?

You can bring whatever you want to eat onto flights. I always get a sandwich or something before flights. Someone will always have Maccers or something and stink up the plane with the smell of fries.
 
Seems like international flight are more strict in this regard.

Ok, I will bring Pho and Vietnamese style egg rolls to the flight tmr. 😀 No problem at all, right?

If those smell AT ALL and I was on your flight I would kill you.
Eating is fine. Eating tink-ass food that smells-up the whole plane for a flight... not good.
 
What are the flight/passengers going to say/do? Whenever I fly with my family, we bring the equivalent of a picnic amount of food. Yeah you get a few dirty looks, mostly out of jealousy. We even bring fresh fruit and on all the flights, taking off is not a problem, it is getting to your destination where you have to declare that kind of stuff to customs (if it hasn't been eaten). I've even taken beer on an airplane before.

I'm actually flying to singapore next week and I'm bringing 4 sandwhiches with me for the flight plus fruit and drinks. The only time I've had good airline food was when i flew in first class so I dont blame you one bit for wanting to bring your own food. And I sure as hell wouldnt pay for it if I had the choice.

How are you going to get drinks on board? (unless you buy them in the airport where the prices are high as hell anyway)

Four sandwiches? Do you need a sandwich/food every couple of hours during your flight?
 
Before all the restrictions on liquids and such, we used to bring breakfast from one of the fast-food places when we had an early flight. As bad as most fast food is, it's still FAR BETTER than most airline food. I've been known to bring burgers & fries with me too.😉
 
As BoomerD pointed out, the trouble is getting the food past TSA. If you have to buy food in the terminal, you'll get hosed anyway. TSA basically handed the airlines and the airport vendors a rape-away card.
 
Check with your local place. Some of them you can only take things on that you bought at the airport AFTER you passed through the security checkpoint. Would suck to bring on the bucket of chicken and have to trash it go to through security.

You're right. I didn't even think about that one. We used to do this pre-911 days before they tightened the security on liquids.

I'm flying to Singapore which is 20 hours of flight plus a 3.5 hour layover in tokyo. I'll eat those 4 sandwhiches and still be starving when I land.

Don't they feed you on that long of a flight? They fed us breakfast, lunch, and dinner when I flew to Vietnam.
 
Tip: Bring an empty water bottle. Then you can fill up for free at a drinking fountain instead of paying $4 for a water bottle. Crystal Light and other companies have little pouches to drop in and shake to make juice drinks if you're so inclined.
