Sitter og blar i "Chronicle of Aviation" og kom over følgende sak fra 1948:
("Chronicle of Aviation" er forresten en bok som kan anbefales til alle flyentusiaster)
Free food is taken off Western menu.
Salt Lake City, Utah, December 12
From New Years Day, passengers on Western Airlines' flights are likely to feel a little peckish by the time they land. The airline announced today that no in-flight meals will be served after the end of this month.
Passengers will save about 5 per cent on fares, according to Western president Terrell c. Drinkwater. Western it seems, has come full circle. In 1928 it was the first airline to offer free in-flight meals. "It is perhaps appropriate that we are the first to take them off," Drinkwater observed. However, in a highly competitive industry, service becomes a discriminator.
Vi får håpe at Mr. Drinkwater i det minste kunne avse et glass vann til sine kunder..
