Late flights, teenage boys and food!

Hi, myself and 2 teenage boys are flying from gatwick on a late flight and arriving at 12.30 am in Ibiza.
Food for the boys is a real headache for me as, more is always best!
I'm guessing that resturants will be closed by the time we reach the resort and that the hotel, although AI, would have finished for the night.
Any suggestions as to how I can keep these lads fed until breakfast?

Eat at Gatwick before getting on the flight?
There's usually at least a couple of hours to kill after passing through security and going to the gate.Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the endQuidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur0 -

I simply assumed that there were restrictions about taking food on to the plane and into other countries.
I guess I could take some tinned food in the suitcase.....

I have some Tesco clubcard vouchers to use up. I wonder if there are any of the outlets at Gatwick and if they would accept the double up codes.

If you eat dinner before boarding the flight surely that will hold them up until morning?
Or buy a few flapjacks in an airport shop to tide them over.0 -
Will you have a kettle in the hotel room? Time for pot noodles etc, just don't forget to take forks!:heartpuls Mrs Marleyboy :heartpuls

Not sure, but worth researching on travel website.

Buy them a meal at the airport and take a snack for the flight. Surely they manage to go through the night at home without eating? If not then they won't die of hunger in a couple of hours lol.0
