*** YMMV on that one. While this describes [[WeAllLiveInAmerica intra-U.S. flights]] accurately, it's still a big spectrum with lots of variance. One surprising airline on the opposite extreme of that spectrum is El-Al: It installs expensive missile defense systems [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill on board all of its planes]], [[CrazyPrepared something no other airline does]], and yet, there's it still has enough spare money to offer free hot meals for ''all'' passengers on ''all'' flights. Given the average Israeli's tastes and El-Al's relatively palatial fleet choices[[note]]On a Tel Aviv to Paris flight, for example, Air France will only offer your typical intra-European fare - Narrow-Body A320, Overhead TV, Buisness Class is little more than Economy with prioritized service and a table replacing the middle seat. El Al, however, handles the Paris route with their long-haul 777s (plus the occassional 747 or 787) - the same 777s they use for Trans-Atlantic flights - half the time, and even the 737s and 767s they use the other half have an actual buisness class.[[/note]], that's not gonna change soon.
