    Obviously some of you have never experienced poverty.
    If I lived in Tondo and I had to scrounge around for food everyday then maybe airline food would be ok.

    The problem is I don't.

    I am not expecting 3 star Michelin restaurant quality food on an aircraft. Something more than stodge and salt is surely not too much to ask for.

    The mass produced meals provided by the likes of "Gate Gourmet", I find uninspiring, dull and bland to the point that I have to bring my own provisions along.

    Don't see *that as being much of a problem ... surely it's more something to be thankful for!

    I bring my own provisions too, AND eat all that is put in front of me.

    I am also grateful that in real terms the airfare to Manila is a fraction of what it used to be.

    Perhaps those who require meals in keeping with their gourmet palette can pay more ?

    If the business class airfare was double the economy fare then I would be happy to pay it

    Its normally more than 3 times the economy fare which I feel is unreasonable

    Premium economy is not worth the extra for what you actually get also

    I will continue to use "cattle class" along with my own provisions of course
