I'm quite happy about this schedule change -- ORD-ANC is listed as a very long 6 hrs 53 min. Do I need to pack snacks or is lunch catering substantial? Does AS follow FEBO?

Wow... this is kind of a shocker as AS did have 2x a day in the summer last year, and I personally prefer to not be on the redeye. Getting in by 130 pm does me really no good IMO, as I'd rather spend that time in the lower 48...

There should be a decent spread on this flight in the front to boot. This month its

Code:

Salad made from crisp iceberg lettuce, bacon, blue cheese and diced tomatoes with blue cheese dressing. Warm rolls with butter.

Choice of:

    * Grilled lamb chop with caramelized onion port wine sauce, potato gratin and grilled asparagus.

    -- OR --

    * Stuffed Chicken Mediterranean, tomato olive ragoût and couscous.

Dessert: Berry petit tart.
