A note on “Airline Chicken” We were concerned that anyone would ever think it appropriate to use the word “airline” in conjunction with food so we Googled “airline chicken breast.” According to Wikipedia, “Airline chicken is a food dish comprising a boneless chicken breast with the drumette attached. Skin on breast with 1st wing joint and tenderloin attached, otherwise boneless. The cut is also known as a “frenched breast.” It is also known as “Statler chicken,” a name which originated from the Statler Hotel Boston, built in 1927 by E.M. Statler.” The term merely describes the way the chicken is cut and does not in any way suggest that airline food is fit to eat, whether chicken or otherwise.
