The airline industry is worth multiple billions of dollars and literally covers the entire globe. On average, over 100,000 planes – that’s 8 million people – are in the air every day. That’s a huge number of people needing to be shuttled from A to B, and sometimes then on to C and D, or back to A.
While air travel has changed a lot in the last few decades, specifically with the rise and rise of super economy flights, it’s still important for airlines to make their passengers feel welcome and comfortable while they’re in the air. Part of this hospitality, as we all know, comes in the form of in-flight meals. While more and more airlines are moving toward serving pre-packaged snacks rather than the traditional hot meal, those that intend to provide a more premium service will still serve hot food to passengers en route.
