1. Shogun's network, collectively 

2. Boarding accompanier on a plane

4. Pigeons

5. Ingurgitate

Answers:

3. ATE LIKE A KING

4. AGES AND AGES

5. PIG OUT 

 

Explanation:

As suggested by PIG OUT, you have to remove the word pig or any word related to pig from one of the words in each of the clues so that the clues make sense:

 

1. SHOGUN'S = SUN'S

2. BOARDING = DING

3. DISOWNED = DINED

4. PIGEONS = EONS

For Jews keeping kosher, all meat from a pig is forbidden to eat.
