I found myself famished on a late-night JetBlue flight and was very thankful to try the turkey Havarti sandwich from JetBlue’s EatUp Café.
I wasn’t sure whether JetBlue would offer its full EatUp Café menu on such a late-night flight, but a flight attendant confirmed that all items were available. I had to decide whether to order the Mediterranean farro bowl, a ham & cheese croissant, or the turkey Havarti sandwich. I settled on the sandwich after pulling up the nutrition facts.
The sandwich has 440 calories, quite a bit of sodium (1100 mg), 44g of carbs, and 28g of protein. Maybe not healthy, but balanced and the item on JetBlue’s economy class menu packed with the most protein. The ingredient list was quite simple: multigrain baguette, turkey breast, Havarti cheese, arugula with whole grain mustard aioli.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
