ATLANTA - Delta Air Lines has begun a weeklong test to see whether coach passengers will pay extra for in-flight food. <br> <br> The test, which ends Saturday, will be on flights between New York&#39;s John F. Kennedy International Airport and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which normally don&#39;t serve food. <br> <br> Items for sale include Mrs. Fields cookies, Entenmann&#39;s cinnamon rolls and Pizzario Uno sandwiches, priced from two to seven dollars. <br> <br> Last week, the Atlanta-based carrier announced plans to charge passengers for ``premium-branded food&#39;&#39; on its new low-fare subsidiary, Song. But it also said Monday it will consider the idea for other flights. <br> <br> America West and Northwest have also tested similar ideas in the past month.
