I could see this being a good option in a few cases. If you have very tight connections and wont have time to stop, this could be a good option. If you like to buy on board, this would ensure you have the meal of your choice in the event they run out of popular items. \u00a0This would also be a good option for people with allergies as the ingredients are listed and you could pick something you&#8217;re sure you could eat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2867\" alt=\"usair meal pic 3\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/files\/2013\/03\/usair-meal-pic-3-340x341.jpg\" width=\"340\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/\/sites\/2\/2013\/03\/usair-meal-pic-3-340x341.jpg 340w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/\/sites\/2\/2013\/03\/usair-meal-pic-3-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/\/sites\/2\/2013\/03\/usair-meal-pic-3-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/\/sites\/2\/2013\/03\/usair-meal-pic-3.jpg 625w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Once you make a selection, you&#8217;re brought to the page where you can specify your seat assignment (you can also leave it blank if no seat is assigned) and then you&#8217;re taken to a payment page.
