Bring your own food? Delta A/L

Only certain jetstar flights:

"For flights operated by Jetstar Asia (3K) or Valuair (VF), unless you have
special medical or dietary needs, please note that only food and drinks
purchased from our cabin crew can be consumed onboard flights."

Hi group.
Have not been flying in a few years and would like to know if I, now
days, should bring my own sandwich and drink? can you? A friend told me
that I may get a bag of peanuts.

Out of consideration for those who have peanut alergies, bringing
peanuts may not be wise,


Utter rubbish -- the vast majority of people are not affected by peanut
"allergies".

For those who suffer from such a malady it's up to *them* to be pro -
active in the matter -- up to and including the option of not
flying...the majority should not have to be subjected to the whims of a
miniscule minority.

Out of consideration for those who have peanut alergies, bringing
peanuts may not be wise, but most airlines have no problem with their
passengers bringing something to eat on board with them. Just contact
your airline for its policy or check your airline's web site.

I'm going by Delta A/L from Miami- Salt Lake City- Sacramento and
return same route. Do I get something to eat onboard or how is it now
days? I don't see any "M" for meals, on my itinerary.

If I were you, since this is a relatively short flight, just eat
something substantial before you board. There are plenty of restaurants
at the airports in Miami and Salt Lake City.

When I have had a late afternoon or early evening flight on Delta which
did not serve food I just brought some cheese, a few crackers, some
grapes, bought one of their little bottles of wine or took their free
juice...quite a nice little picnic for a 3 hour flight.

Since I am one scrupulous sensitive, ethical n.g. posteror:

I hereaby withdraw that implied endorsement of peanut butter 'n jelly
comment (perhaps with the bread-crust cut-off).

As a child in the 1940s-1950s, it was the
signature/chi-chi/preferred/designer/Tiffany/ Ralph Laureen lunch,
sometimes accompanying Campbell tomato soup 'n soda crackers.

And the soup was diluted by MILK, not by water.

jeez....how will you possibly survice 5 hours without food........ ?

There are a number of medical conditions that require a person to eat on a
schedule, flying times notwithstanding. Eating unfortunately isn't always
about hunger.

So, if you have a medical condition or just want to eat, then bring
something onboard. DL allows food.

Go to Delta's web site and enter your flight number and click on
details. It will tell you if you get a "snack" or "no meal". A
"snack" is not a meal. You will not get a meal in coach on most any
domestic flight any more.

Most airports have plenty of places that will be glad to sell you food.

My flight on Delta last August from CVG to HNL included a sandwich
lunch. Even so, I had brought some munchies of my own.

Thanks, to all of you for your info. and help.
Guess I just have to get something in MIA firs and then wait until I get
to SLC and get a snack there, at the airport.
Again, thanks
