What is the best way to eat in flight? Airline revelations
The publication The Sun shares information about the features of nutrition on board the aircraft.
If you prefer natural and fresh food, then in flight do not order vegetarian, gluten-free, diabetic and other special dishes.
Most often, such food is prepared in advance. That is, your Asian kit could have been cooked a year ago. An example of this is the American Airlines menu.
A spokesman for the carrier said the sheer volume of food on board forced the use of pre-made and then frozen specials. They have an expiration date, and it can reach one year.
It is not necessary that the products in flight will be so old. But at the same time confirmed that the special menu is likely to be less fresh than the usual "fish, chicken or meat."
Standard on-board meals are prepared 12-72 hours before the flight, and in chilled form up to 5 days. Hot food is usually served on flights longer than 3 hours.
In business class, most often passengers receive lunch in porcelain dishes and glass glasses, and in economy class - in disposable plastic and cardboard dishes or special aluminum containers "cassette". All unused food in flight is disposed of.
Winners of the prestigious Skytrax World Airline Awards for the best on-board catering in economy class - Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines, Asiana Airlines, Qatar Airways and Japan Airlines. Among European carriers in the top 10 included Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines.
