"airplaines" news and stories

Flying is a tricky business these days, especially when it comes to the availability of food. I know that I don't need the extra calories when I'm essentially immobile for a large chunk of time, but I like having something to munch on when I'm on an airplane, especially if it's a long flight. At this point, I've basically given up hope of having a meal served (let alone an edible one), especially after my last United flight across the country teased me by asking my meal preferences when I booked the ticket. There are a few airlines that offer sustenance, but it looks like you might have to pay for that packet of peanuts/pretzels/snack mix with some of them.
