Korean Air introduced pre-order meals for Prestige Class passengers in January 2023 before extending the service to First Class flights departing from South Korea in October 2024. The latest expansion brings the programme to First Class services originating from major overseas gateways.
According to the airline, the pre-order system is intended to provide passengers with greater certainty over meal availability and enable more tailored meal selections.
A Korean Air representative said: “By expanding our pre-order meal service to overseas departures, we are offering First Class passengers a more personalized and seamless dining experience. This service enhances the passenger experience while strengthening the precision and quality behind Korean Air’s premium inflight dining.”
