We Asked A Chef.&#8221; \u00a0I opened the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cntraveler.com\/daily-traveler\/2014\/07\/chef-christopher-kostow-on-food-trends-and-airport-food\" target=\"_blank\">story<\/a> curious to see what a chef had to say about the worst airline food. \u00a0To my surprise, the article was less about airline food and more a general interview with the chef. \u00a0The final question posed to the chef was &#8220;What Airline Has The Best In-Flight Food?&#8221; \u00a0The chef answered the question by saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><span style=\"color: #222222;\">Definitely not Frontier. I flew that yesterday for the first time and it\u2019s like the Greyhound of the sky. You have to pay for, like, a Coca-Cola.<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>First, I think that was a &#8220;I don&#8217;t really want to answer the question&#8221; answer. He didn&#8217;t answer the question. \u00a0Second, Frontier doesn&#8217;t serve food, unless you count the snack pack boxes which only contain pre-packaged foods like cookies and crackers. \u00a0I also didn&#8217;t realize that you had to pay for drinks on Frontier. It turns out drinks aren&#8217;t the only thing you&#8217;ll pay for on Frontier. \u00a0Frequent Flyer Members won&#8217;t pay for non-alcoholic drinks and the top elite members won&#8217;t have to pay for alcoholic drinks either. In addition, if you buy a full-fare or flexible ticket you won&#8217;t have to pay either. \u00a0Speaking of paying&#8230;if you&#8217;re on a discounted fair and have no status, you&#8217;ll pay for drinks, carry on baggage, checked bags, seating assignments and more. I digress, this isn&#8217;t a post about Frontier Airlines fees. \u00a0This is about What Airline Has the Worst Food. \u00a0So, since the chef didn&#8217;t answer, I thought I&#8217;d take a stab at it. Overall (domestic and international airlines with #1 being the worst)\u00a0\u00a0 Air Asia X<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Air Asia X \u00a0&#8211; the absolute worst food I&#8217;ve ever seen in my life<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Tiger Airways \u00a0&#8211; have you seen the show Big Brother? They have to eat something on that show called slop. I&#8217;m pretty sure they got the idea from Tiger Airways.<\/li>\n<li>Fiji Airways &#8211; I had 5 meals in total on Fiji Airways and the food was really, really bad. \u00a0Some was so spicy it wasn&#8217;t edible and some was just so bad it wasn&#8217;t edible either.<\/li>\n<li>US Airways &#8211; this was a tough call, but US Airways serves some of the most disgusting food to its business class flyers domestically. In their Envoy class available on some international flights the food is pretty good.<\/li>\n<li>Air China &#8211; the food can really be hit or miss on Air China, but mostly it&#8217;s a miss. \u00a0The soups are often very good, but the prepared meals leave a lot to be desired<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Those are the airlines I think have the worst food, What Airline Has the Worst Food\u00a0in your opinion?<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6452\" style=\"width: 509px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6452\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-6452 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/verygoodpoints\/files\/2014\/04\/IMG_0718-e1404865041566.jpg\" alt=\"Fiji Airways Food\" width=\"499\" height=\"373\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6452\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fiji Airways Breakfast looked okay, but tasted bad<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I fell for a Conde Nast Traveler teaser asking &#8220;What Airline Has the Worst Food?
