Attention Passengers: Would You Eat Airline Food at Home?

Indigenous

Rocky Mountain National Event recently issued the following announcement.

With its crispy brown base and the right amount of fruit and creaminess, the homemade cheesecakes made and served by Air North, a small Canadian airline headquartered in a community of just 40,000 people, are considered a little slice of heaven at 30,000 feet.

“I recall receiving comment cards asking which flights are the cheesecake on or if they could buy it anywhere,” says the airline’s longtime Red Seal chef Michael Bock. “We are also often asked when we will bring back certain dishes, such as our pot pies and seasonal products like our turkey dinners.”

“It’s nothing like you’d expect on an airplane.”

In September 2018, the carrier, which runs passenger and cargo flights from its headquarters in Whitehorse, the capital of Yukon territory in the country’s remote northwest, decided to introduce the cheesecake to supermarkets. The creation, which comes in raspberry, chocolate, blueberry, mango, and haskap berry flavors, made its debut on the shelves of Wykes Your Independent Grocer stores. During the launch, flight attendants took over the shop’s PA to create a cabin-style atmosphere, and there was a cowling of a 747 with a freezer inside. A shop freezer door poster boasted that “Yukon’s own cheesecake is in sight.”
