Thanks to the dogged accumulation and clever application of frequent flier miles, I’m able to fly in the front of the plane, which means less these days than it used to. Still, there is a bit of food and a steady flow of drinks. For example, during a recent departure from Aruba, the following breakfast was enjoyed:
All the essentials were there from orange juice and fruit to the quiche and grilled tomato. Seriously, this was a tasty treat, albeit a small one compared to my usual breakfast. The cabin staff was friendly and helpful, the way they always are aboard American, at least in my experience. Enjoy your flight and please cooperate with all the directives issued by the captain and crew. They are looking out for your safety and comfort.

Airline Food (a nice meal!)
Enjoyed a very nice meal during a flight from MIA to PHL yesterday. What I liked most was the simplicity, which is a requirement (in my humble opinion) if your’e going to serve a meal from a closet, as most airline galleys are. This was courtesy of American Airlines, my preferred carrier.
Chicken wrap with couscous from American Airlines.
The chicken wrap was tasty with a mustard-type dressing that kept things moist. The couscous was rather interesting and very difficult for me to describe. Suffice it to say, it was a nice touch. Portions are small but are probably the size we should all eat instead of the grand feasts. I’d like to give a thumbs-up to American Airlines for this combination. It’s a big improvement over some of the other meals I’ve had.
