This is a joke. AA is not even competent with their core business of getting a passenger from point A to point B on time with their luggage let alone taking on the challenge of meal service. This is nothing more than LSG putting the AA logo on their trucks and delivering the same old garbage.
………QANTAS built a six-storey Catering Facility at its’ Jet Base, in SYD, in the early ‘80’s. To see six HUGE cauldrons’ full of beef, & chicken stock was fascinating. Bread loaves’ floor to ceiling in a very large freezer. Dessert’s being assembled on a production line. One floor for inwards dirty cutlery, dishes’, & glasses’. One floor for outwards of same, onto galley pallets’ for the departing jets’. All fabulous to learn about………
All these is just free advertising for all american airlines. The truth is most passengers flying on board these airlines still complain about how bad american airline foods are.
This is 100% fake for the cameras. American Airlines took is absolute trash! Filled with chemicals! It's like McDonald's if not worse! I took one bite of food from this Airline and was on the toilet filled with gas!!
I wish airlines would stop serving meals. They’re never good and they prob drive up the cost of the ticket so much. Somehow airplane food tastes WORSE than frozen meals. I’d rather choose to bring my own food that I buy in the airport, which I already do.
When I was a sales rep for a safety equipment company in Northern California I was invited to tour the LSG Skychefs facility at SFO (I believe around 2015-2016) and meet with their management in preparation for submitting a bid for their business. During the meeting with the operations manager I caught the tail end of a conversation with him and the purchasing agent from Virgin America Airlines (now part of Alaska Airlines), and I clearly the conversation they had when he told the LSG manager that if they removed just 3 grapes from their $9 fruit and cheese tray, that the airline would increase the profit from the sales of that one item aboard to something like $160K annually. The margins on those meals are super high, but a lot of those "Airline" kitchens have now pivoted to serve as commissaries for convenience stores where food can be prepped and shipped to local stores to sell items like sandwiches and salads cold to customers or to be heated up in appliances in the store to sell hot food items like pizza, chicken, wings, and eggrolls.
"It really doesn't matter what you serve, the number one outlier that is important to our customers is running an on-time operation" Seems kinda off-topic for a food video…
Glad that I ate in the Charlotte airport before my flight to Munich on American. The chicken barely looked like chicken and had no taste. When the government allows most airlines to merge, don't expect competition to force better options from domestic airlines.

If I was in charge of purchasing I’ll feed customers eggs and potatoes to all them. Is the cheapest meals to give them.
