Where's the (snack basket) beef (jerky)?
Sure, some of you would probably relegate this to the stupid-complaint thread, but I gotta know -- have others suffered from an absence of beef jerky in the first class snack basket the past couple days?
Monday morning (just after 10 a.m.), DCA-SDF, there was jerky in the basket. Great. Monday evening, AA4341 (Republic), CLT-DCA, no jerky (but everything else was there). Flight attendant says no jerky was catered. I was surprised but thought it a one-off or maybe the catering folks pilfered it or the FAs ate it. (I've flown the same flight essentially every Monday for a few months, there's always jerky.) Currently AA2564 (mainline), DCA-JFK, no jerky but everything else is there. Flight attendant again says no jerky catered. Another outlier, or is something going on with the jerky? (To be fair, I would have eaten more in the lounge if I'd known -- the jerky is a reasonably healthy option, despite the salt, with its protein and low fat/carbs.) |
I hope they didn't get rid of the jerky, it's my favorite. I will see when I fly next week.

4 snack basket flights starting last week for me and none had the jerky. I assume it's too costly for AA 👎

I was afraid they'd axe it as of March 1, but when my March 4 a.m. flight had jerky I was happy about another month of it. I guess that flight was the one-off :( |
Yes jerky on DCA-JFK on 2/27. No jerky on JFK-DCA on 3/5.
|
Yes, I miss the jerky. Haven’t seen it for a few weeks now. Hoping it’s absence was a catering issue since I’ve also seen breakfast baskets catered on evening flights out of Boston lately. |
I’ve been disappoint by the absence of jerky on at least my last dozen (relevant) flights. I think it is gone :( |
Beef jerky was on LAX-LAS last week but not the other way on Monday.....sad. |
Found it in the basket on a regional aircraft last week but haven’t seen it on any mainline flights this year...too bad it’s one of the best. |
I think the crew has been taking the Jerky on multiple flights I have reasons for this conclusion. It is the only NO CARB HIGH PROTEIN "KETO" ITEM IN THE BASKET.

I had the Beef Jerky option on a DFW-LIT E-175 two nights ago (along with the cookie butter cookies). Love the jerky.
|
Jerky missing on Monday's Compass Airlines E175 flight. The flight attendant in F went back to Y and returned with a "Power Bites" box and handed it to me. Inside the box I found:
Steak Strips (Jerky); Brie Spread; Artisan Crisps; Fig Spread; Chocolate Almonds; Parmesan Crisps. That was a generous surprise. ^ |
same. it’s the only edible snack basket item.
|
Jerky should still be catered. It is definitely included in the Power Bites box in Y
|
boy I must be really dumb... dd not know they even had jerky in the baskets... all I ever see is chips, nuts and cookies
