Air France expands its in-flight catering offer

,

Air France is gradually reintroducing some of the services that it had been forced to reduce at the height of the Covid-19 crisis.

The company continues to reinforce its flight schedule in order to offer even more travel opportunities. Some 170 destinations will be served at the end of the 2020 summer season, i.e. 85% of its usual network – including direct flights from/to Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Vienna, Warsaw, Prague or Munich.

In this context, Air France has been offering an upgraded dining service on board its flights:

  • In the Economy cabin, on all flights lasting less than 2hr30, a beverage service comprising water, coffee, tea, fruit juice and alcohol is offered, together with a savoury or sweet snack on some destinations. On flights lasting more than 2hr30, customers are able to enjoy a gourmet sweet or savoury snack. In Business class, in addition to its catering offer, Air France has resumed its wine and Champagne service. On long-haul routes, Air France has been offering its customers a fuller meal service with more choice.
  • In Economy and Premium Economy cabins, the company currently had continued to provide a full meal service comprising a hot dish and hot and cold drinks. On flights lasting between 6hr30 and 8hr30, a second “breakfast” service is again being served in an Air France “BON APPETIT” bag. The “BON APPETIT” snack had been maintained on flights lasting more than 8hr30. The “MY LITTLE GOURMANDISES” gourmet box containing a selection of sweet and savoury biscuits remained available on a self-serve basis in the galleys, depending on the flight’s duration.
  • In the Business cabin, the welcome drink – water, juice or Champagne – served to each customer after take-off is back. The dining offer for customers travelling in Business class is made up of a main meal, served without interruption during the crisis, with a choice of 4 delicious hot dishes.
  • Depending on the length of the flight, a second hot or cold gourmet meal is again available. The “sweet/savoury” gourmet basket remained available for customers on a self-serve basis in the bars and galleys. On flights lasting more than 10hr30, a basket of fruit is available for customers seeking a refreshing vitamin boost during the flight.
