Snacks for the plane

[nicster]

Our plane flight is at noon. We have to leave home about 10am, so too soon to have lunch. We may, or may not be able to eat at the airport. So my question is, do any of you have some unique ideas or suggestions for snacks for the plane? I will be bringing some almonds, and I have a few power type bars, I just don't think that will be ... shall I say, interesting enough food to occupy us. Let the ideas flow!!!:mickey:

when we left Orlando on our way home the family in front of us on the plane brought full McDonald's meals they bought at the airport

[Tippy]

We bring lunchables or cheese sticks, crackers & apple slices.

We've brought chips, nuts, candy, all kinds of junk food for snacking.

Not hijacking...just wanted to say lunchables are a great idea!! I never thought of that. I will have to remember that one!

[vws_and_disney]

i normally make homemade trailmix the night before mmmmm. Then Grab drinks from the airport if you have time.

Some great ideas. The apple slices & cheese sticks are especially appealing. I don't think we have ever tried lunchables (kids grown & gone), I will have to look into those.

Please don't take tuna. I was on a flight and the people in front of me made tuna sandwiches. It was a bit smelly. :confused:

Have a great flight, good ideas listed. :thumbsup:

Ewww. . . .yes, or egg salad! :sick:

We've experienced both from fellow flyers ~ who then developed gas after eating their lunches! :fit:

And please - no peanuts from those of us with those nasty allergies . . . .

Pepperridge Farm Mint Milano Cookies are my favorite plane snack. I get the mini packages.

I have seen people with subway before on a plane and I had wished we thought of that.

If you can I would skip the nuts because so many people (especially children) have allergies.

popcorn (i like the salt and vinegar shakers)
on the way home we usually stash some of the minnie bake shop cookies or some of the goodies from goofy's.

Carrot sticks and celery with some ranch dressing in a small container. Refreshingly good and does not sit heavy on your stomach.

And, yes, no tuna or egg sandwiches!!

Yup ~ my allergy is severe enough that the oils in the air will give me hives and start to close my throat.

Can make for some interesting flights . . . . :(

Thanks for asking/checking though . . . alot of people without allergies have no idea how little it can take to set them off . . .
