I absolutely love being on a plane. However, the thing that gets me a little down is how cold and dry it can get up there in the sky. Sometimes I love to order something to keep me warm and comfortable.
 

     This cup of English Breakfast Tea by CBTL is just that. When the AirAsia crew hands me a cuppa, the first thing that I noticed is the nice fuzzy feeling I get in my hands holding the warm cup. Then, I just take the time to breathe it in. The aroma and warmth of this blend of black tea is simply invigorating and therapeutic. Its crisp, smooth, and medium-bodied blend is absolutely satisfying for a tea lover like me. Also, I love the simplicity and taste of the tea without the need to add any creamer or sugar. It’s a quick fix for a more enjoyable flight  :-)

On my usual early morning flights, I sometimes eat before I board the plane. Yet, I can’t resist the temptation of purchasing something on-board! This AirAsia Travel Treats Bag solves my problem as it is healthy, light and soothes my craving to munch.

     The set comes with three snacks in a cute limited edition collectible pouch. It includes a Loacker Minis Vanille, a Quaker Oat Cookies with Chocolate Chips, and one IKO Oat Plus. Though I must admit that I am not usually a fan of oats, but both Quaker Oat Cookies with Chocolate Chips and the IKO Oat Plus are rather crunchy and tasty! As for the Loacker Minis Vanille, what’s there not to love? These treats go well with CBTL English Breakfast Tea as well!

I usually do not fancy sandwiches, but I do love a good Chicken Caesar Salad. This sandwich gives a twist to the classic Chicken Caesar Salad. The grilled chicken pieces are satisfying in the sense that AirAsia did not stinge on it. The same goes for the tomato and romaine lettuce. Though I could use a little more of the creamy tasty Caesar dressing, the fresh and soft wholemeal bread which is not soggy is a plus for me. It is a simple meal, yet, it fills me up. A good choice for those who seek a light refreshing meal.
