ABSTRACT:
A system for storing and transporting food and beverages on board of an aircraft is equipped with a centrally arranged container having the configuration of a freight container for holding menu boxes and beverage boxes with at least one distribution station or pantry, and with a transport channel that communicates with the container and the pantry. The transport channel includes at least one vertical conveyor so that the container may be placed on a lower freight deck while the pantry is positioned on the passenger deck. Such a system can handle more menu and beverage boxes of standardized sizes than trolley based systems without sacrificing space for passenger seats.
