Airline food has always had a bad rap. Yeah, it isn’t the best thing in the world, and jokes about airline food are getting really old. But, somehow I find myself always intrigued about what different airlines are serving. This is especially true for airlines I’m going to be flying. And while there are a number of sites out there dedicated to this topic, none have really been that useful. Maybe if you’re flying a large, mainline carrier like American they are, but for smaller carriers, not so much. But I recently came across a lifehacker.com post about another site dedicated to dining in the sky: Inflightfeed. The site is a blog about airline food, but it’s also an excellent airline meal guide.
Ok, to be fair, Inflightfeed isn’t perfect. It still lacks coverage for airlines like Hawaiian and Alaska, but the guide portion does include a nice amount of information. The blogger is based in Europe, too, so there is a stronger emphasis on European carriers. Still, it’s a good resource and great effort, in my opinion. Definitely a great quick reference, especially when you’re not familiar with the airline you’ll be flying on. Especially since the site is entirely dedicated to in-flight dining, and doesn’t talk about the hard product at all.
I do like reading full trip reports from others, especially about truly aspirational first and/or business class experiences. But you know what, sometimes the food interests me just as much, if not more than other aspects. And realistically, I usually fly economy, which seems to be the focus of this blog. So for me, it’s a really useful too. Inflightfeed really is an excellent airline meal guide, and I hope they eventually touch on most of the world’s airlines.
