Airline Recruits Chefs To Make On-Board Meals

提交時間:
 
Lavish dining programs in first-class cabins on long-haul flights are nothing new, but Etihad Airways, based in Abu Dhabi, has recently gone one step further by bringing chefs from top-rated restaurants on board to prepare meals in the air.

Guys, you are missing the issue, Etihad, Gulf, Qatar, Saudi and probably another one are owned by their oil-rich governments so if they lose hundreds of millions of dollars a year, so what. This is why we will never see this level of pampering aboard European or U.S. airlines, even in first class.

Interesting idea to get attention but it doesn't seem like something most passengers would enjoy. Ethiad's first class, like most, is a very solitary experience and people have headphones on and aren't expecting to interact with anyone, certainly not to the extent of discussing food with a chef.

Maybe airlines need to start thinking more like this, however. With the way the industry is right now, maybe they need to add prestige back into flight. Class it up.
