    No from experience, they will probably help themselves to a few snacks from the kitchen.

    Cant really do that when you are 36,000 feet in the air. ;)
    Depends who you fly with.

    There's always that clever trolley thing they push along the aisles as well.

    Expensive rubbish.

    Nothing clever about purchasing expensive nonsense on a flight. £6.50 typically for a poor sandwich and can of drink :)

    She could put that together for £1 at home.

    How insulting.

    Only 'crazies' would think so. :)
    Anyone else would take it in the spirit in which it was meant.
    Perhaps that is why the 'crazies' are so intent on starving the kids, feeding them with MaccyDs or wasting money on expensive snacks on-board.

    Hey 'Crazies'! Leave those kids alone!

    As has been stated before, the OP wants advice on how to feed the children on landing. She has to live with them. So try to be helpful, not sarcastic.
    "Clever little trolley thing" indeed. ;)
    It is a holiday, not a Boot Camp. Hangry children are no fun.
    I'm always hungry after a flight, regardless of what I eat on board.

    Hey 'Crazies'! Leave those children alone! doesn't have the same ring. Otherwise perhaps PF would have used it.

    I quite agree and never buy on board and rarely buy in airport.

    But I think the OP has had rather a lot of very simple suggestions as to how to feed the kids. Some of them are so blindingly obvious I'm amazed the thread exists at all.

    So you continue to insult. Well played.

    Only one person knows what that is. And they've followed it up with a further insult.

    To be fair, the OP made it clear that they didn't know that they could take food with them.
    So I think they will be doing that. But tinned food......noooooooooooooooooooooo :)

    Says you with your "clever little trolley" comment.
    Followed up with "But I think the OP has had rather a lot of very simple suggestions as to how to feed the kids. Some of them are so blindingly obvious I'm amazed the thread exists at all".


    There is quite the difference between humour and insult.
    I think I am on the side of humour. I can't see the humour in yours.

    insulting to the people throwing out "snowflake" comments? Hmm, pots and kettles....
    Not even wrong
