I think it's a big part of it.
Yeah, I think like as the prices have gone up for everything in the airport and often you'll get a snack, you're just at a boredom, you might spend 20 or 30 quid.
I'm like, you can book the lounges sometimes for 25, 30, like they do deals, depends on the time of day, but you can book in for like two or three hour slot and then like all your food and drink you can have in there.
And I've heard some people call it bottomless brunch in the airport.
Yeah, but it's and it's nice because, you know, you kind of have somewhere to sit.
And like often there's like other snacks if you want to take like to have like fruit or other bits to take with you to have on the plane.
But sometimes it can work out to be the same price or like just a little bit more and a better experience.
Sometimes if you check with your bank card, sometimes you have access to the lounges.
Like if you revolute, sometimes you get access depending on what level you're on or depending on what credit card you have.
So it's worth checking out.
Yeah, the first ever food served was in 1919.
So like, yeah, over 100 years ago.
And it was London to Paris.
And they served just like kind of lunch sort of stuff.
And like from looking at the history of it in the beginning, it wasn't necessarily like that wasn't necessarily a long enough flight that they were going to be starving.
But they did it as a form of like something to do and entertain because people were getting on a flight for the first time.
They might be really freaked out if you had the kind of ceremony and the entertainment of having your meal and
and like a trolley service, then you're going to keep people occupied.
