Pardon my "realism" lala but AS actually offers a better product in terms of food service on flights, in the majority of markets they serve, then any other airline in the country, with the possible exception of Midwest Express. Perhaps you didn't get a meal at 2p from SEA-OAK in FC but you wouldn't get a meal on any other airline either - not even at meal time, when in fact Alaska does serve a meal to passengers in Firdt and economy. In fact, they offer a choice of meals in FC on these very short flights. Complaining about the lack of food on a SEA-OAK flight is very petty, not skeptical. It also lacks any substance.
