According to DietDetective.com, they held a 2013 Airline Food Survey which rated foods from 12 separate airlines. The survey assigned a score of 1 to 5 (5 stars = highest rating, 0 stars = lowest rating) based on eight criteria, including how healthy meals, snack boxes, single snacks and other offerings were; the calorie levels of snacks, meals and snack boxes; improvement over last year’s survey; and menu innovation and cooperation in providing nutritional information.

According to DietDetective.com, Virgin America was recognized for its “Travel Light” meals, nearly all of which are good choices (for in-flight food that is).

Here are the results (from best to worst):

1. Virgin America — 4.5
2. Air Canada — 4.5
3. Alaska Airlines — 4
4. JetBlue Airways — 3.5
5. United Airlines — 3.25

6. American Airlines — 3
7. US Airways — 3
8. Delta Air Lines — 2.75
9. Frontier Airlines — 2.75
10. Southwest Airlines — 2 (doesn’t offer snack boxes or meals, only single snacks)
11. Allegiant Air — 1.5
