Food/dishes that you're supposed to think are great, but who you don't like.

Or, to turn the question around; school dinners

Not to mention airline food. The finest mashed potato I have ever tasted was on a BA long haul flight.

Back in the day, KLM used to present a most creditable seafood platter.

I had a chicken dish with mashed potato on air canada. I wasn't expecting much I was nearly tempted to not eat it at all. but it was tremendous.
However the bread is always disgusting.

sometimes when I am flying I just want to be left alone and don't want a tray with all these bits and bobs laying about.

I also like a window seat
I hate aisle seats
They unsettle me

No trays in business, f. A fresh white tablecloth, a little vase with a flower, and proper silver cruet sets

I like the aircraft with feet salt and pepper pots they have on Virgin long haul

I've only ever flown Virgin once. Delhi, I think it was. Most of their flights are to tourist destinations, aren't they? :sniff:

I never have the chance to do so.
Though I have a friend who seems to do it for a hobby not sure how he gets all these deals.

KLM to Darkest Africa, flying through the night with, what with hindsight almost certainly became, half of ISIS or Al qaeda dug in at the back in the galley swigging wine and spirits miniatures two or three at a time and scoffing all the food and snacks.

If only we'd known, eh

KLM continue to serve more destinations in east Africa than BA. 'Go figure', as I believe the cousins would have it.

I am a big fan of Kenya Airways business class on their 787s. Jolly comfortable and the service is keen and attentive, if occasionally a little rough around the edges. I like it especially because the calm, relaxed atmosphere is such a contrast to the scrum upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta

Ah, yes. I remember well, the child redgunamo being loosed off into the heart of Africa in the middle of the night, with firm instructions to run like mad for the plane and fight like crazy to secure our seats; no modern nonsense like boarding passes or anything back then. Not even a proper airport terminal building, just some shacks full of people dressed like they'd walked in from the Old Testament accompanied by their farmyard animals.
