i thought 2 pilots cannot have the same meal?

[fly4fun]

@lowjinhuigary As explained in the blog post that goes with this video, the pilots can have the same meal and eat them at the same time.

[fly4fun]

@fly4fun ...and that applies at this airline in this country. Other airlines/countries may have different rules.

[jojo990100]

do you want some hot nuts

[mraltay10]

every airline has its own rules. Pilots in Turkey don't eat the same meal. But the pilots of AA do. So it depends on the airline and the country

I thought two pilots are not allowed to eat the same meal. Or is it just a myth?

[llew777]

I was led to the belief that all the pilot crew were served different meals, because of the risk of food poison.

Help me on his one

Thank you Rob From Canada

Meal time for a pilot its better in airbus because of the table :)

@AAGAL1998 - you actually think someoneis going to use a plastic bin full of ice and sodas as a way to gain access to the flight deck? Wouldn't the fact the pilots know the FAs from the preflight briefing and don't recognize the intruder put the kibosh on that plan? Perhaps you should be a little more concerned about the fact that employees are eating the same meals as high-revenue passengers when your company is struggling financially.

Hey great video! I was just wondering if you're transfering the meal from the packaging thing to the plate and if it drops,what do you do? also where do you transfer them for the passengers? in the cabin or in the galley?Where do you put the packaging and the plates after the service?I saw the cart , where do you place the nuts,desserts salads and the dressings? Thanks. :))
