As I posted about a few days ago, I had my first mainline flight from Tampa to Washington Dulles this morning. I was worried by the fact that the flight was listed as having no meal service on united.com, but fortunately that wasn’t the case. While it was a “picnic box” meal, it was food, and food on an 810 mile flight is a good thing. So I guess I can expect meals from now on, which makes me even more excited about Ted going bye-bye.
It’s also interesting to note just how much United loves cheese. I had a cheese omelet and they also had cheese and crackers. C’mon United, this is a breakfast flight!
@ ua_to_ord -- LMAO, you might be onto something there. :D
@ ual757 -- Usually they don't, but I think in this case they do because the food overnights in TPA, as it was flown in from the catering facility at a hub. As soon as all flights into TPA are mainline, I'm betting they'll do meal catering here in TPA.
nothing wrong with cheese, lucky. better than a breakfast with danish, and sugary fruit yogurt! but this is coming from a dutch person....
Waiiiit! The Ex-Ted A320's have those gross TV tray meals in F?
Say it ain't so!
At least you did not get the dreaded fruit and cheese plate: United's favorite short haul flight snack that is disgusting.
Either that, or the need to purchase an extra seat while flying in Economy.
United might be figuring that an abundance of cheese will lead to an increasing waistline which, in turn, will increase the passenger's propensity for needing F on future travels.
