    I flew to Asia a few times and there’s always a few meals included. But they were always Asian airlines.

    Last time I flew back with a Norwegian airline and I didn’t get to eat at all for the entire way and I was not prepared for that.

      I think I remember flying Norwegian from the US to Europe once (~a decade ago), and it was budget but still had meals included. However I believe they’ve since gone bankrupt, and there’s a new airline called Norse Atlantic that is ultra budget and won’t feed you unless you purchase meals beforehand.

      But with a little bit of homework the ultra budget flights can be nice. I did a Paris to Los Angeles flight on French Bee a few years ago and the base fare was under $300, so I didn’t sweat pre-buying seat selection and meals for another 50 or $60.
