Yeah, I thought about the ice obviously being already on board after I wrote the topic. On long hauls though I thought perhaps they made more ice. The FAs let my son store is ice bags for chilling his samples in their freezer so I thought maybe there is ice-making capabilities...snip

The "freezer" they put it in must have been a bin with dry ice since we don't have freezers (or the capability of making more ice). They load the ice in bins with dry ice on top and it will stay frozen for quite awhile. Very interesting thread you started!!
