Long gone are the days when “airplane food” was used to describe anything less than gourmet. (Okay, that might be an overstatement, but airplane food has improved dramatically over the past few years). Some airlines now hire renowned chefs to design their menus, and others are offering the possibility to pre-order meals you might actually like.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if entrees were not limited to incredibly hot, and mushy chicken or pasta? Can you imagine a beverage selection that has more to offer than syrupy white wine, tomato juice, and weak coffee? Delta Air Lines thinks so too. The airline has some ideas in store to make on-board meals and drinks a lot more enjoyable.
Customizing The Food And Beverage Experience
Very little information is currently available about Delta’s project to enhance the food and beverage experience, but what we do know is that something major is a-cooking (pun intended).
From their screens, Delta Air Lines passengers will soon be able to indicate if they wish to be woken up for drinks and meals. This will ensure that you get the rest and sustenance you actually want without putting the flight crew in a dilemma.
Not only that, but from that same screen, you’ll be able to select what specific drinks and food you want or don’t want to be served well before flight attendants come by with their trolleys. Not keen on the grilled chicken? Opt for something else. Yearning a mocktail? Select it on the menu.
While Delta’s future enhancement of the on-board food and drink experience is not exactly like a made-to-order menu, having more choice is always welcome. And although it might seem like a small step, it’s one all travelers will welcome with open arms.
