    They don’t even care if you eat your own food during a flight. The flight attendants only concern is that the tray table is up during takeoff and landing. Aside from that, eat (almost) whatever you want.

      In my experience you are right but I wonder how far you could take it… Like there are outlets at most seats in modern airplanes, could I bring a hot plate and make Korean BBQ on the flight?

      DO NOT DO THIS! BEST CASE YOU WILL PROBABLY BE INCONVIENCED AND HARESSED, WORST CASE ARESSTED!

          I have no idea, just a funny thought. What if you used your carry-on for like a 30lb turkey and started carving it up like Thanksgiving once you reach coasting altitude?

              Good point… Wonder if you could get a blender in your carry on. Imagine what would happen if you just started making smoothies mid-flight.

                Funny enough, in the 80s my uncle did bring a blender on a flight to Hawaii. Apparently the attendants were totally cool with them using a hand cranked blender to make margaritas for themselves and their neighbors.

                Another family member was with him and corroborated the story, so I like to believe it’s true.

              Obviously not, that’s what your carry on is for. Under the seat might work for sides or maybe some bisquits…
