Abundant space above an airliner's ceiling lends itself well for replacement of a single food cart blocking aisles with overhead conveyance of passengers' meals. A linear levitating motor for quaintness and easy controls, in fastened to airplane's structure track system, is a motive element. By movements of the motor's mover and attached to it elevator meals are delivered to passengers at several points simultaneously. Overhead moving trays holders are lowered over the center aisles for distribution of meal trays by attendants, and elevated to return to the galley for new load. Same system is used to collect discards.
