That's why I say I should be the genius the airlines hire to sort out these problems.

No, trust me you have not solved the problem, because if if this idea went through you'd be a laughing stock and opening yourself to more problems over something that can be so simple. You say the airlines should give vouchers for the nearest concessions is a joke, totally laughable. Again re-read what I wrote. And the what if's matter because these are questions that will come up if you tried to implement such an idea. You can't just come up with an idea and NOT wonder "what if".
Here is what I mean: a week ago, I took a flight on Continental that left out of gate 115, if you know newark it's waaaaaaaay in and down a level. You know the
"nearest" concession at the time is a pizza shop and a coffee place. For most that's reasonable, right? So now let's implement your idea. We give vouchers for the coffee house and/or pizza shop. But much further away is a Ruby's burger place, why can't I get a voucher there? up and to the left of that is La petit Bistro (I love that place) why can't I get a voucher there? These places are not that close yet not that far that I can't get something and go right back. These are the "what if's" you will avoid if you just give a voucher for wherever and not be specific, yet also let the passengers know to be back within a certain time for updates or boarding because of the slot.
And it's true that most people with Strict dietery needs MIGHT carry all their foods, again "what if" (there it is again) they didn't or forget to bring food. Or because its a delay what if they eat all their provisions...... that "specific" voucher will anger a lot of people.
Airline genuis.... If you can't think outside the box... then genius you are not.
