What's an Airline Chicken Breast?

A couple of weeks ago a group of us went to a nearby café for dinner, and airline chicken breast appeared on the menu in a few dishes.  The server didn't know what they were, but maybe someone here does.  What's an airline chicken breast?  What, if anything, makes it worth special mention?

So it's another term for supreme?

 

No, not really. As I understand, it's the breast half with the (bone-in) wing attached. One advantage it has is that the wing helps keep the skin attached, which is pretty much impossible with a plain boneless breast half.
