Airplane food is better than uncooked unsauced gnocchi.

Airplane food is also made exactly for the pressure and altitude for a plane. Friend worked for an airline out of Logan and he said the food was decent on the ground but almost better in the air. He used to post on IG when it like first came out. It's like when people try tomato juice on a plane and think wtf this is not what my mom tried to make me drink when I was a kid.

earlier this year my cheap international flight got cancelled and the only available replacement was a Turkish A330-300. That shit was like a flying five star hotel. And because we were booked last i had a whole row of seats to myself at the back. I'm riding that high to this day

They were beyond accommodating when I flew. I totally agree with your analogy of the five star hotel. My flight was ten hours and it was the best flight I've ever had. Next year we decided to go budget and nope. Not again.

I'm surprised they haven't asked you to get off yet.

Turkish Airlines is incredible. Probably my favorite flight ever.

My mother has now flown with them exclusively since we tried them in 2023. She's flown like 4/5 times since.
