Chinese meals on long and medium haul flights
Our menus carry a wide range of international cuisines. Enjoy a complete regional Chinese dining experience in First Class on long and medium haul flights.
Made to Order
We are among the first airlines to have rice cookers, toasters and skillets on board, enabling our flight attendants to prepare freshly cooked rice, toast and eggs to your liking. First Class passengers can also go à la carte and choose their own meals and dine anytime they wish. Hmm, how about having fried eggs, sunny-side up?
Oodles of noodles
What better than a bowl of hot noodle soup to either tie you over or as a meal choice? In First and Business Class on selected routes from Hong Kong, we feature local signature noodle soups.
Snacks on long-haul flights
We keep our galleys stocked full with a variety of tasty treats, from noodle soup, sandwiches to cookies and apples. So the next time you wake up in the middle of a flight, don’t go hungry.Snack items may vary according to season, route and flight class.
Ice cream, just dessert
What better than an ice cream to finish lunch, dinner or supper! On selected long haul routes we feature ice cream as dessert.

It offers a creamed richness, vanilla and soft fruits complemented by a soft, delicate structure, and finishes with poise and great charm. |
| Château Branaire-Ducru 2007 Château Branaire-Ducru is an elegant Grand Cru wine from Saint-Julien of Haut Medoc, Bordeaux. This wine shows impressive concentration of fruit for the vintage with plenty of currants and violets, as well as blackberries. It is full and silky, a precise wine balanced with good length. |
