Japan Airlines to serve KFC on select flights

NEW YORK -- They're calling the flights "Air Kentucky Fried Chicken."


Japan Airlines says it's serving food from the fast-food chicken chain on international flights from Dec. 1 to Feb. 28. The meals will be served to fliers in premium economy and economy from Narita Airport near Tokyo to Boston, Chicago, Frankfurt, London, Los Angeles, New York, Paris and San Diego.

The meals will consist of a drumstick and chicken breast in KFC's Original Recipe, as well as flatbread, coleslaw and lettuce. They will come in a specially made box featuring an image of Colonel Sanders. The airline notes KFC is "widely popular" in Japan, particularly during the Christmas season.

Japan Airlines has partnered with other chains for similar promotions. Earlier this year it partnered with the Japanese beef-bowl chain Yoshinoya Holdings.

    I was actually on a flight once where a big fat slob brought a bucket of chicken on the plane. He sat down in the middle seat and ate the entire bucket over the 1 hour flight. Nobody sat next to him!
    It smelled so bad too!
    Still not sure where he got that bucket of chicken as they don't sell that in airports. Must have brought it in with him. Can you imagine the TSA scanner guy....
    Suitcase, suitcase, laptop, shoes, suitcase, laptop, then a bunch of little bones! :lol:

    when I flew to Alpine, someone brought on McDonalds. It was a red eye flight, I usually don't mind the french fry smell, but at that time of night... :sick: (the flight was packed too-they even asked people to give up their seats)

    when I flew to NOLA, a bunch of people were wearing beads and feather boas...the captain came over the loud speaker and said, "there will be no flashing for beads".

    i'm not but i don't like to be showered with someone else's germs

    i was in shock when it happened and frankly, what was there to do? yell at the guy? what would it accomplish? this is a person who has no compunction to sneeze on a complete stranger and not even realize it

    I actually like flying.
    Just don't like people.

    As a weekly flyer, you do tend to get used to some stuff...then all of a sudden, after 1000 flights someone will do something completely crazy or completely maddening where I want to strangle them.

    That said, I think after all these frequent flyer miles/points...I should be able to trade them in on my own plane. :D
