Perhaps Virgin America's move to take flight with absinthe has inspired other airlines to focus on its in-flight services. American Airlines has announced that it will begin serving items from Boston Market on select flights.
Beginning tomorrow on flights to and from Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, and Hawaii, American will offer a bevy of menu items from the chain popular for its rotisserie chicken. The $10 selection includes the Carver sandwich, the Beef Brisket Grinder, and the Italian Grinder, as well as the Chicken Caesar, Market Chopped, and Italian Chopped Salads. The airline plans to serve the selection to additional routes starting July 1.
The familiar Boston Market brand could be welcome on airlines, which are not usually known for their selection of food. Still, even though I haven't been to a Boston Market in a while, I don't recall shelling out anywhere near $10 for a sandwich. Would you order Boston Market on your next flight?

My husband flies American for work, but I seriously doubt he'd pay $10 for a sandwich, even if it is a Beef Brisket sandwich, which he loves. I always bring my own food on airplanes...it's usually better and cheaper than anything they serve.
1um...that's interesting and i have to say that i really do not look forward to being on a flight that smells like chicken. being a vegetarian, there are some smells that are NOT appetizing and chicken is one of them when you're in a confined space.
2MMM, I LOVE Boston Market!!!
3Boston Market is nasty!!
4It's weird eating on a flight two inches from the person next to you if they're not.
5I don't think I've ever been.
6love it! 2 of my girls have food allergies, but boston market is something both of them can eat
7It's all about getting a $5 meal at the airport food court before the flight.
8screw that
9if it was a long enough flight, i probably would. otherwise, i'm kind of cheap, and probably wouldn't pay 10 bucks for a sandwich. does it at least come with a side?! i hate how airlines are charging for everything nowadays...remember when you could check a bag for free?!
