(Baonghean.vn) - You'd be surprised to discover how much airline meals have changed over the past half-century. It turns out passengers used to enjoy meals that rivaled those in world-class restaurants.
Recently, Norwegian airline Scandinavian Airlines released nostalgic photos from the 1950s to the 1980s, capturing passengers enjoying crab, lobster, bacon, caviar, etc. on flights. A small note: you should not view these images on an empty stomach.
 |
| Security regulations were much more relaxed years ago. These days, they don't even have kitchen knives on planes! |
 |
| First class passengers were served fresh fish and bacon. Drinks were served in glass cups rather than the plastic cups we use today. |
 |
| In the 1960s, passengers were served tea from a stylish, elegant tea set, accompanied by freshly baked cakes for the perfect snack. |
 |
| Fresh fruit is also available on long flights. |
 |
| Of course, the economy class meals are a little less impressive. Here's what they had in the 1960s. |
 |
| And here's a picture of an economy class meal in the 1980s. Not much different from the meals we get served on flights today. |
 |
| In the late 1980s, in-flight service for business class passengers was also impressive with a delicious buffet table. |
 |
| Back in the days, you could start with champagne and caviar... |
 |
| ....and then moved on to a lavish dinner, served on exquisite china. |
 |
| Lobster was still served in business class in the 1980s. |
 |
| We can only guess that, back in those years, food carts were really mouthwatering! |
 |
| “I'd like some prawns with some chilled aperitifs” – “Right away, sir!” |
 |
| The dedicated service attitude of airline staff. |
