Korean Air extends First Class pre-order meal service to overseas departures

Korean Air will extend its First Class pre-order meal service to long-haul departures from nine overseas cities, bringing advance menu selection to major outstations in the US and Europe. The rollout covers Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Washington D.C., Paris, London and Frankfurt, with orders available for flights departing on or after 22 June.

Passengers can choose both the first and second meals through the website or mobile app from 21 days to 24 hours before departure. The airline is adding Korean, Western and vegetarian mains, plus appetizers, soups and extra vegetarian options. The move lifts a product previously limited to Korea-origin First Class and should tighten premium cabin consistency across the network.
