Would like to sample. In my airline days we had fresh proteas to greet us after a long stayover at any port in first class. Caviar, sharkfin soup and Black forest cake as well as cigars. Those were the days when the (Orange tail) SAA were the best in the world!!

Just need to get one of those, take a piss in the cupboard and get someone to kick the back of my sofa for 3 hours. I miss my air travel 🙂

Finally

Anyone who has ever eaten an Easyjet cheese & ham toastie will never miss airline food.

No.

Like asking if I miss dandruff, or constipation, or stomach flu.

Yes, can't wait for my local market to stock up on CopaAirlines 'cheese & mushroom omelette'

Awe-fuckin-some!

FYI, Publix has a wide array of biscoff cookies, peanuts and canned beverages.

How stupid is that?

Who threw up in my clean tupperware?

Who in their right mind misses airline food?

... there are actually people who miss airline food?

Finally we know the deal with airline food

Hmmmmmm

This seems like a good idea but airline food is way too flavoured to compensate high altitude smelling. On ground level it might be a little too much.

This has to be a joke?!?!

No

As someone who chooses to starve even on cross ocean flights, hell to the no

No.

Haven't seen it since 1976 on Eastern when a flight from NYC to Orlando came with a quiche & peach cobbler.
