What's the deal with airline food?

[Nikamichi]

It like, sucks and stuff.

lol....thanks

 

[TheSlamma]

the walkin freezer thing just didn't work out, and they seem to have enough problems staying afloat without having a 5 star chef on each $99 flight to Cleveland

actually the last meals i had on northwest and kenya airways were really good.

 

[Tylanner]

American way

You can get other meals. Pretend you are a Jew, Muslim, Veggatarian. Just ask what type of speical meals they have when making the res.

 

[FleshLight]

You can pay extra for the premium meals. Jet fuel price go up + ticket price go down + less travellers = PROFIT!

the best meal i've ever had was on a first class flight from San Francisco to Washington D.C

1. Eliminate airline food.
2. Pack a snack.
3. Lower prices.
4. ????
5. Consumer for the win.

[annoying, nasally stand up comedian voice]And what's the deal with sneakers. I mean, do you really sneak with them? And what about loafers. I mean, loafers are work shoes, not loafing shoes.[/annoying, nasally stand up comedian voice]

I was flying on NWA last year and had the airplane meal, a sub sandwich, salad, and cheesecake, and thought it was pretty good!

FTS! (Fvck that sh!t) I don't wanna "pack a lunch" on a six hour flight, let alone a 12 hour flight. I like airline food for the most part and have no complaints, taking airline food out is probably the gayest thing they could do.

 

[ThisIsMatt]

Yup, take your own stuff if you want decent food. I didn't have any trouble bringing a whole pizza box onboard multiple flights 😀

 

[Pepsei]

that reminded me of a website that a guy who put up on foods of airlines... people can submit pictures of the meal they get from different airlines.... hmmm i'll google it...


edit: found it here

I concur :beer:

 

[Mermaidman]

Ah, I remember the days when AA served Uno pizzas in coach!

 

[MaxDSP]

<---used to work in airline catering....loved chowing down on the international FC/BC food 😀

 

[mrrman]

and you have to pay for it now

 

[Pepsei]

anyone paid for the food on Northwestern? is it better than the free ones?

 

[sleuth bandit]

Because you're too cheap to buy expensive seats on a premier airline.

 

[WildHorse]

Competition for customers is one the strongest force on suppliers to perform to high quality standards.

You, sitting in that airplane seat, are a captive customer. There's no competition for your consumption.

If the airline got so many complaints that customers actually stopped flying their airline, that'd provide a market force toward improverment. Otherwise, chow down, or don't eat that disgusting airplane "meal."
