Airline meals
Just Pie in the Sky
Did you know that a commercial jet cabin is pressurized to 8,000 feet above sea level? This low air pressure, high-altitude environment causes every part of our bodies to swell up—even our intestines. For this reason alone, if you skip all airline food, you will have an easier time with jetlag — even in first class. Not only that, airline meals are typically high in fat and preservatives — while low in carbohydrates. In my research, I’ve found that mountain climbers claimed carbos offered them an ‘altitude advantage,’ i.e., they could function more effectively and think more clearly at higher altitudes when they ate mainly carbos and avoided proteins. Besides, if you really think about it, airline meals are just frozen dinners re-heated in aluminum pans, and flight attendants are not trained chefs like those in gourmet restaurants.
Where’s the appeal in that? Suppose we all stopped eating on jets. Not only would jetlag be reduced, but maybe the fares would be, too. The airlines spend a ton of money on airline meals — the majors each supposedly spend in excess of 4 million dollars a year on food. I can understand spending 4 million dollars on something enjoyable, or something that helps people, but airline meals? Hardly anyone enjoys them, and they make it harder for us to get over jetlag. Yet, many passengers feel that by ordering a ‘special meal,’ they can get something of a little better quality than the normal airline fare.
Special meals
Here are the special meal options that are available for passengers; not all options are available on every flight.
Vegetarian (no meat, fish or eggs, it usually includes dairy)
Hindu (spicy, Indian-style vegetarian)
Kosher (the cutlery and plates have never been used before, and the meat is slaughtered, cooked and served according to Kosher law)
Muslim (meat is slaughtered in the name of Allah and is of permissible food source, such as beef or lamb)
The Prescription Diets: diabetic, low sodium, low cholesterol/fat
Order a ‘special meal’
Here’s how to order (and get) your special meal request.
Request it with your reservation. 2) Reconfirm it with Reservations 48 hours before departure. 3) Ask at check-in, “Is it in the computer?” 4) Ask the galley attendant after boarding (prior to takeoff), “Was it loaded?” At this time, to aid cabin attendants with delivery, hand over a slip of paper with your meal preference/name/seat number.
