Y'know which airline's good and which isn’t.

And any suggestions for ordering special interest meals. I always feel left out and unloved when people get their special meals and then they come round and give me whatever was left.

But being Catholic and omnivorous I have no dietary requirements so I thought maybe the Culchie meal would be good - guaranteed at least 50% potatoes.

food on Virgin was nice when I travelled with them.

as befits the jolly Germans, the sandwiches Lufthansa gave were pretty tasty too.

any time I've travelled long haul (with a variety of airlines) the food has always been nice enough. i love airline food, it's part of the treatiness of travel.

Fresh Air did a segment on this site which included an excellent description of "unidentifiable chicken product in a bucket." Sadly, it looks like it got overloaded.

food on UInited was very nice, they had pasta and everyone knows thats a winner!

I think they have filed for bankrupcy since (I know they've cut a lot of jobs). shame...

Midwest Express in the U.S.--the food is good, and they give you freshly-baked, warm, gooey chocolate chip cookies.

Yummy.

Finnair meals are really quite reasonable.

Then again, they ply you with sooo much vodka that it's hard to tell.

Qantas plied me both directions with a fair Australian red and a white, so I can't complain.

Virgin had a nice Chicken Tikka Masala wrap when I went to London. I was so hungry that I kindly requested seconds, which may have been a first in the history of airline travel (ok probably not, but sill...).

i feel sick if i eat on planes so i usually don't. but once my dad told me about how he was seated next to some guy who had walked around the world or something like that and he was hungry enough to eat two meals so i figure i just need some more excitement in my life.

Seek: Singapore Airlines First Class. (Why, yes, I would like real cutlery and china as well as a glass of Moet, before I slip into my complimentary pyjamas and sleep on my bed with a doona.)

Pearson Airport's resturants are over priced but cook up some decent food, but you can't compare airline food to train food. VIA rails chefs whip some serious ass. Bottomless coffee and eggs, bacon, hashbrown and toast as the sun rises over eastern Quebec's farms or New Brunswick's coast is grebt.

Turkish airlines was pretty nasty, apart from the baklava. But grey meat in brown sauce? no ta.

Malaysian airlines food was numlicious, as was the veggie breakfast I was had from British Midlan.
