I wonder whether catering staff are ever tempted to try the food they prepare
Always love the SATS food offered on SQ flights! Interesting to see this insight 😀
Use AI
6.5million meals a year, 17k meals a day. There are huge implications in the event of a non delivery. Imagine boarding a 12-hour SIA flight and the steward tells you there are no meals because the caterer F up.
SATS also make prison food. So you're esting prison food in SIA
Very bad AI narration
Airline food tastes worse as time goes!!
Can we get them in vending machines? Yum
The worst dish I ever ate on an airplane was on an SIA flight-"chefs special" chicken and black lentils dish.
It was an unidentifiable black blob.
I still have PTSD.
I love Changi Airport, it’s the best airport & I love the amazing amenities. 😊
Food getting worse on SIA flights, and seriously stop giving that hard as rock bun.
Must have healthier choice logo or not? Our Singapore school central kitchen and canteen must have. Less sugar. Less salt.
but does anybody know the staff are paid only $11-$12 an hour?
Stop with ai voice over

I remember smoking weed from Singapore and got a flight to Thailand. It was so chill.
I only took Singapore airlines once, 30 years ago because it's not my final destination.. My frequent stops are hong Kong, Dubai and Istanbul.
In 2025, I flew Air China via Beijing, food is not good but I got a free van tour to the Great Wall. I prefer free tour 😊
No local to take that high position job? …
It does not employ a dietition?
Can add another order for central kitchen for schools too.
Enough with the AI voiceover its so obvious. Please stop.
The poor quality of SQ makes me feel embarrassed to be Singaporean
Gee, I wonder how they will do in student canteens, oh wait…
