I think it is stupid that food isn't provided for the FA's on long flights. Just plain stupid! It should be part of their 'rest and refresh' provisions. How can they have a good attitude when they are hungry?</font>
Whiel I agree that it is nitpicking in the extreme to take away FA's food provisions, I don't understand why it's necessary that the airline provide food to them while flying. I don't generally provide my employees food during their workdays. I don't think I'm alone or even in the minority. Why should FA's feel entitled to free food?
