Air North Now Delivers Airplane Food!

Airline food isn't microwaved.

Air North is a beautiful “time warp” experience. I started my career in aviation in Whitehorse in 1970 with CP Air (Canadian Pacific Airlines) at time when senior management were well paid but so were front line workers. At a time when an airline felt responsibility for the community they served. It’s so refreshing to read something like this. Hats off to Air North.

Does it have to be food? Can't we get an airline to delivery Dom or Krug or ???? All jokes aside they might be providing food to a community of people that need help - so well done to them!

It's fairly common for high end hotels like Ritz or St Regis to sell their fancy meat or seafood and cooked meal at relatively low price (but still kinda a ripoff lol) in china since February. China eastern also sells airplane and lounge food. Businesses will do anything to reduce loss and improve cash flow during this rough time.

Singapore Airlines.

In 2014 Air Food One attempted home delivery of LSG Sky Chefs meals. They were delivering leftover airline food throughout Germany. That effort ... didn’t make it.

But you can make your own United business class meals with the Polaris cookbook, eh?

This is all new food, none of it is "leftover" 🙂 It keeps the catering folks employed and the distribution chain active.

Surprised they aren't delivering the cheesecakes as well (which can be bought @ Wykes/Independent grocery store)

I heard Qantas was looking to off load 3 million frozen meals given it is no longer flying international. They were looking to off load bulk orders to aged care providers.

Any airline that can offload unused pax meals by selling it will get some badly needed revenue, and the food does not go to waste. This is called sensible initiative. Absolutely nothing to 'LOL' about here if you use your brain and think about it sensibly, instead of treating it as a joke.

If you want airline food, check your local 7-Eleven. In Silicon Valley, I've seen and sandwiches and other items in the refrigerated snack section with a "LSG SkyChefs" label.

In their defense food is much more difficult to come by in Northern Canada and food prices are outrageous.

I can’t imagine eating airplane food right now. Bad enough i have to eat a Boston market or hungry man frozen dinner which makes me feel like a prisoner.

Practically a steal, considering food prices up in the Yukon.
Was hoping I could get on this, but alas I am in the wrong province.

Honestly? If ANA would deliver their Japanese Chicken Curry I would order it pretty much every day. If they could also provide a First seat to sit in and eat it, even better.

Frivolity is fine, but how about some substantial news, like British Airways abandoning Gatwick?

Never been to the Yukon, but I'd love to try this airline. I'll pass on the food.

Nice and cheerful post on Air North - they deserve your accolades!

@Ross
BA is not alone. Virgin Atlantic has also, to use your emotive term, “abandoned” Gatwick.

BA has also moved all its Heathrow flights into LHR T5 (or do I mean it has “abandoned” T3?), thus finally achieving the original vision of a single Heathrow terminal for BA. Though not necessarily in the way it might have hoped.

Etihad food please!

April Fool’s???

Well, I'd certainly go for the meatballs Delta had over the last year or so on various routes...though that Shepherd's Pie looks not-too-bad, too.

(Now if only they were located where I was...)

A great idea. Unlike most airlines, all Air North catering is done in house and far more homely than factory lined produced. Air North are selling these meals at near-cost as an way to keep this in-house team in work and suppliers (who are struggling as often food service supply chains operate independently to grocery stories supply chains) with some custom. Applaud them for what their doing.
