I know at least one, maybe both of the airlines that make up the 'Big Three' with us have the ability to go in before a trip and request specific crew meals. If you're trying to eat healthier, you can request a meal that reflects that. If you're allergic to shellfish, you can make sure you don't end up with the shrimp plate. It sounds like something we need to be working towards here, it'd end the, 'Which one of these things looks best to you?' chatter and you could all get what you want.
Would this be something that sounds as good to the rest of you as it does to me? I think it'd improve things a little bit for us and not really cost the company much more. I'm thinking about approaching union leadership about the process of this becoming reality. I know it's not as easy as the I'm making it sound, but I think it's worth exploring.
