What catering food is available? is it possible to maintain a certain (healthy) diet during the trips?
The more of a restricted diet you have, the more food you will want to take with you. Some pilots take a LOT of food (a pilot with celiac, for example), and some take complex coffee makers. A LOT bring their own coffee: catering is usually Maxwell House?...not very well liked. Sometimes we get Starbucks.
I know of a Halal pilot that quit. I like Halal a lot.
The catering ranges from OK to great...HIGHLY variable.
I have had FedEx and UPS catering. Some of it I like better than Atlas. Some of the typical Atlas catering I like better than the FedEx/UPS stuff.
