Lufthansa is improving the travel experience of its passengers with new meals on short and medium-haul flights in Business Class from February 26.

The new catering concept offers travellers even more choice of hot and cold dishes and passengers can look forward to new delicious starters, main courses and desserts. It combines local cuisine and European influences. Great importance is attached to selected, high-quality ingredients from all over Europe. The new meals were created jointly by celebrity chef Johann Lafer, Lufthansa’s culinary teams and catering partner Gate Gourmet.

Greater variety: On routes with a flight time of around two hours, Lufthansa passengers will in future be able to choose from a wider range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian cold dishes. On long routes with a flight time of three hours or more, travelers will be able to choose between three hot dishes instead of the previous two.

Anyone who wants to put together their menu before the flight can do so free of charge and conveniently from home with “Pre-Select” – pre-ordering from a selection of up to nine hot dishes is possible for flights lasting more than two hours. This allows guests to enjoy a wider choice of meals and at the same time supports optimized planning, which promotes a more sustainable use of food. The more targeted loading reduces overstocking and thus the disposal of food.
