Either way, those in-flight meals are the punctuation marks of long-haul flights and there\u2019s no denying that the little flourishes on your tray can make or break your experience. Here\u2019s our rundown of the <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">best flight meals<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Delta<\/h2>\n<p>Over the last few years, Delta has been upping the ante to become one of the best airlines for food. The focus is on local farmers and artisans, with a twist on Southern tradition. Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q\u2019s has designed some dishes for passengers flying out of Atlanta, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/en-gb\/destinations\/usa-and-canada\/united-states\">USA<\/a>: the short rib open-faced sandwich with sweet pickles and a side of cheddar and broccoli is not to be missed. Top it off with banana pudding for a true down-home affair. As far as the best airplane food goes, the Biscoff and chocolate chip cookies are legendary \u2013 they come warm in a brown paper bag, making them the ultimate snack in the clouds for economy and first class passengers alike.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12388\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12388\" class=\"wp-image-12388 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/atl_dom_first_class-lunch-dinner-mashama_bailey-7063psd-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Image of plates of food on a white table cloth, with hands holding cutlery tucking in\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Mashama Bailey for Delta<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Hawaiian Airlines<\/h2>\n<p>Fly from Los Angeles to Honolulu and you\u2019ll get brunch, lunch and a late-night snack. Look out for international offerings like the coconut and lemongrass braised chicken with eggplant and Israeli couscous or the warm yuzu pound cake (by Honolulu-born executive chef Michelle Karr-Ueoka). But the island offerings are a thrill, too: there\u2019s a Kalua pork hash on the menu, plus beers from Maui Brewing Company and custom cocktails from On the Rocks, including the celebratory Tropical Landing (gin with violet, guava, coconut and citrus).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>We think you&#8217;ll like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/10-best-airlines-for-business-class\/\">10 Best Airlines For Business Class<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Singapore Airlines<\/h2>\n<p>A consistent favorite among frequent flyers, Singapore Airlines has an admirable number of options for all passengers. Premium economy dishes include garlic-roasted prawns with smoked aioli and patatas bravas, beef Bourguignon and Chor Mee (minced pork noodles). The airline has an air sommelier program, in which cabin crew can apply to become wine experts, which means they can offer passengers guidance on wine pairings.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12389\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12389\" class=\"wp-image-12389 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fb-shiquanshimei-scaled-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Tray and bowls of Chinese food on a white table cloth\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12389\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Singapore Airlines<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Korean Air<\/h2>\n<p>Think your taste buds are useless at 40,000 feet? The bibimbap is one legendary in flight meal you&#8217;ll definitely be able to enjoy (and the same one is served in economy, business and first classes, just with different utensils); it\u2019s a platter of beef, steamed rice, cucumber, mushrooms, beansprouts, spinach and pickled radish, ready to be tossed together with a tube of gochujang and a sachet of sesame oil (the pros ask for extra gochujang). On the side: pickled cucumber and seaweed soup. The snack service includes hot rice balls and cup ramen, brought to your seat with the hot water already added, and the seasoning sachet on the side.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Read next: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/michelin-star-dining\/\">Michelin-Star Dining at 30,000 Feet? This Airline is Making it Possible<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>All Nippon (ANA)<\/h2>\n<p>ANA works with various chefs to get their menus just right. Toru Okuda \u2013 a Michelin star master of kaiseki (multi-course meals) \u2013 takes care of Japanese food, while Ryuta Iizuka (who studied under Joel Robuchon) advises on French. Expect them to go all out if you\u2019re in first or business class: Wagyu beef sirloin stew with a side of fragrant shiitake, maitake, and abalone mushrooms, saut\u00e9ed in \u00c9chir\u00e9 butter, for instance. But there are treats in store for the economy classes too: the likes of red rockfish teriyaki and oyakodon (chicken and egg rice bowl) will see passengers through, with proper miso and pickles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DAWIQyxMQ-5\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DAWIQyxMQ-5\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by All Nippon Airways (@allnipponairways)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Emirates<\/h2>\n<p>Emirates is consistently at the top of the lists of best flight food, thanks to its ever-evolving menus, attention to detail and unlimited Dom Perignon for first class flyers.

Beyond the juice, it\u2019s all about the Turkish appetizers, grilled fish, Adana kebabs and sesame pittas.

Customers can choose a restaurant-class meal, from lobster thermidor to a perfectly-cooked steak.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What is best to eat on a long haul flight?<\/h2>\n<p>Prioritize protein, vegetables and fruit when it comes to eating on a long haul flight. Carry extra nutritious snacks with you like nuts (checking nobody on the flight has an allergy) or seeds. As well as eating properly, it&#8217;s important to stay well hydrated on a long haul flight \u2013 your perception of salty and sweet tastes drops by almost around 30 per cent inside a flight, but drinking water helps reactivate your taste buds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whoever you\u2019re flying with, Business Class or Economy, chicken or fish, airplane food is somewhat of an acquired taste.
