Some recent experiences with SkyWest dba United Express on meal service flights to PBI. All in all, very good service from these crews. Both segments had warm towel service, lunch service included nuts (not warmed), and frequent refills. Oddly, on the lunch flight, the FA bounced around the cabin to take meal orders. Despite being seated in row 4, only two pax had their orders taken before me and I'm only Gold with United (apparently a lot of silver upgrades).

UA5404 - ORD to PBI 9/1/18 @ 0730 Departure (breakfast). Choice of oatmeal or "protein plate". Went with the protein plate, which has been much discussed. Fruit was fresh though, especially the pineapples.



UA 5426 PBI - ORD 11/1/18 @ 1230 Departure (Lunch). Choice of Asian Salad with chicken or Roast beef sandwich. Asked the FA which she heard from pax was better. Response: Oh, I don't eat the food. Okay, that's an answer to a question, but not the question I asked. Roast beef sandwich was actually pretty nice. It was served cold, with thicker slices of roast beef, bleu cheese and I think mizuna lettuce. Great little sandwich, and I would definitely recommend it.




Verdict: all in all, pretty good performance by SkyWest on this route.
