If you don't bring your own food on flights with American Airlines, you are just out of luck.
They didn't feed me on American Airlines. Not a peanut, a pretzel or a little bag o' chips. Things are getting out of hand on the cheapness scale.
I was just this week on a 41/2 hour flight to Dallas - you'd think some food would have been forthcoming. Actually, there was an option to BUY a bag of chips ( three dollars) or a prepackaged side salad (five bucks). I did have all the free non-booze drinks for the asking and this managed to tide me over somewhat. I have some ideas for how to calm the hunger pangs if you forgot to bring your own snacks - mainly drink coffee (an appetite suppressant) and food-like juices like milk, tomato juice and orange juice - but the point here is that you shouldn't have to. Is it really so tough for American Air to afford a few bags of nuts?
