<div><p>thaiWe all know airline food has a bad reputation, and it definitely deserves it. For years airlines let their standards slip, some have even cut costs by getting rid of meals for everything but really long flights.</p><p>That's why it's so refreshing to see that some airlines are still doing the right thing. With all the hassle we go through at the airport, we deserve a nice meal on the plane. And in an era where everyone calls themselves a foodie, nobody can get away with serving reheated Salisbury steak and calling it a gourmet meal.</p><p>Sample a few bite-sized glimpses at the best food today's airlines have to offer and start planning your next trip. I'm thinking of scheduling a few extra-long flights just so I can try as many of these as possible!</p><div><amp-img src="http://www.challengeschanges.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/VintageAirlineFoodOnset.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></div><p><strong>1.
