You’ll always have a choice of at least one vegetarian option, which also complies with our Hindu and Asian vegetarian meal choices. You can request a special meal when you make your booking online, through Manage my booking, or with your local travel agent. Flying with a partner airline? You'll need to speak to them about your specific dietary requirements.

Allergies

If you have a severe food allergy, you may bring your own food on board which our cabin crew will be happy to warm for you. We do not guarantee a peanut-free environment on board. Nuts may be served in the cabin, used as an ingredient in a menu or carried on by other guests. It is also possible that traces of peanuts or their derivatives could be in the cabin environment or the aircraft air conditioning. An allergic reaction to peanuts or any derivative can be serious. We do not accept responsibility for any allergic reaction on board our flights. If you have any sort of allergy, always speak to your doctor before you travel.
