" captain speaking we have fresh food now in coach. That's apparently going on these days as airlines trying to give you better food when you think airline food you'd think -- But apparently it's getting better and let's bring in our consumer race and Kate who's been out there sampling of food are."

" Or not I'm not now I'm not not as good as you know airlines have been at for the most part haven't served a free meals in coach for -- long time it's been years. And that they stopped doing that they would offer of these snack boxes and they soggy sandwiches and passengers really we're not happy. About crappy food at a high price and now what airlines are doing. Is trying to all these just to pay for it but they're trying to offer a better quality of food. And."

" It makes sense that delta shuttle years ago final -- they still do this but they used to offer.

" Yeah nasty. Both American Airlines.

Help them come up with some more snacks and meals to sell including an Allman buttered grape jelly sandwich for example -- would you get that. Item for two and a hundred wasn't united is also basically doing the same thing man the special sandwich with. Tomato and mozzarella and diesel they're -- offers Moody's and things like that so. They're all trying to improve their food. As a way too well and as a way to stand out. Amongst their competitors but also because passengers have not been very happy about it when a lot of people are doing -- before they board the plane. They're checking out the restaurants and a snack shops -- in the airport and my accent there. And bringing on the plane with themselves. While analysts tell The Wall Street Journal that. That improved food will not this is really be a huge moneymaker for airlines like say their baggage fees are. It will keep some of the business on the plane -- where people buying food on the plane as opposed to giving your business to somebody else."

" Remember just a few years ago the trend seemed to be pointing toward. Carry on cuisine then remember that -- well and health how different restaurants that -- here get this. Cobb salad and yes the -- were made. You know with in the last five years."

" Right right of that and that's that's what. Airlines are saying while there's not been a big huge boost in sales is really this is sort of a new thing they're doing it it is it taking a revenue up a little bit. It also depends on how many passengers have connecting flights -- time that day. The quality of restaurants within the airport there's all kinds of factors that determine whether somebody's gonna. By a a mile border not what was the best meal you've ever had on an airline. Boy it's been so long since I've had an actual meal on an -- an -- your mail is -- the bank of Nazi US Airways gave you he adds in a sand in the last two times I've flown last time I flew I eat. And a Burger King before I got on the on -- play and a how to sound experience. Well you know it was Burger King. "

" The home of the -- area and McCain. I think I had an angry whopper of an angle. I hope you weren't -- the back of the plane in flight and the apple got consumer base and Kate thank you very much thank yet."
