Actually, it's amazing to me that airline pilots are actually carrying lunch boxes, or talking about coolers. Why is this necessary? I have never felt the need to carry food with me. Just one more thing to haul around with the flight case and suitcase....always thought that that was what per diem was for. Get a decent meal at a restaurant on the road, or go to a grocery or deli. Do they really run you so ragged that one can't get a decent, healthy meal? I've never seen an airline pilot carrying food unless it was too much to eat at the restaurant, so had retained leftovers for reheating....
Sorry, I've only worked 121 supplemental and flag.....
