Upmarket and department store 'Fortnum & Mason' recently revealed these pre-made airline meal kits that cater to fine dining tastes of in-flight passengers.
The airline meal kits, which are titled 'Hamperlings' come in a variety of options and cater to single passengers or groups of passengers. These highly luxurious meals are available in choices such as a smoked salmon plate, foie gras and even caviar.
In an attempt to improve the food quality, menu options and personal preferences of mid-air diners, Fortnum & Mason created these fancy feast kits. The picnic-like packages are sold in England, they come in a sleek blue bag with all required utensils and will cost between $20 and $70. Each Hamperling is the perfect airline replacement meal and can easily be tucked into one's carry-on bag.
