I'm just familiar with that particular airport. I was there again today as a matter of fact.

FWIW, you ARE best to be prepared with your own food and beverage. We bought soda and water before getting on the plane yesterday. The Delta attendants breezed through the cabin only once with the drink cart and then followed up with coffee or water. Customer no service. We won't go into the attendant who woke my husband up because she thought the 2 unruly boys in the back of the plane were his!

OMG!!

So much for flying interline in the future with hopes that the flights wouldnt be full. I occasionally call the employee travel line to see how many non revs are listed and how many open seats there are. Ha!

Good idea Chadd...never thought of that...although I am so lazy in the morning before our flight,,,after all I have to pack Dh's suitcase as well as mine...and all of the other necessities....I usually just eat at airport when we arrive in Charlotte and then buy on board....but I am going to be good this year and make sammies at home......

I usually end up getting the biscuits and gravy at the Carolina pit BBQ when I go to Aruba through Charlotte. It's not the least bit healthy but it's delicious and sticks with you for a while.

Biscuits and gravy are my number one favorite breakfast...the only thing that makes it better is a side order of grits slathered in butter !!!! YUM !!!!

When I bring a few steaks from home to Aruba instead of blue ice things - I throw in frozen juices which work out great for drinks later in the week =0)

I didn't know you could bring food from home on plane. I thought it would be taken when we went through check points and x-ray machine.

just no liquids thru the TSA checkpoint (carry on)
the blue icepacks thru carry on are a 50/50 shot sometimes they are allowed other times not.
if u do bring a bag lunch, make sure that you eat it all as one cannot bring fresh produce such as apples, bananas etc into aruba
