Alaska Airlines FC Meals?

In 1970 Northeast intended to merge with Northwest, but Northwest backed-out. In 1971 they merged with Delta.

Imagine frying-up raw meat on an airplane.

I've had "steak" on the plane, and if it looked like this at some point, it certainly didn't when the FA handed it to me. But I imagine service back then could have included such a thing. That would have been wild, steak to order at 37,000 ft, what a world!!!

The Beechers Mac and cheese is good, but I never ore-ordered it for the plane, have only gotten it at the terminal at PAE, which with its grand total of two gates, is a hidden gem of easy in / easy out, to avoid SEA, if I’m driving to places north of PAE.

I’v regularly had $500 a plate steak and lobster halfway across the Atlantic. Or between NYC and LA for that matter. Ordered from restaurants that didn’t do take out, so we would have to call and talk to the chef directly and pick up our catering from the back door of the restaurant.

I was also flying a billionaire around, so it went with the territory.

We also had post flight cocktails handed to us by the FA, right before she handed me the vacuum and said get to work. So there’s that.

I think the biggest shell shock when I got to the airlines was the lack of food and long lunches, and the state of the avg lavatory.

Forgot all about any of it the first time I saw my 401k and I clicked out sick without fear of immediate repercussions

You should see the state of the average lav at UPS. Heck, in the 727 days we had a porta potti and it was discouraged to poop in it.
