Which airline has the best food? New ranking unveils best in-flight meals
In-flight wifi, extra-large screens, an extensive selection of entertainment options: many Middle East-based airlines such as Emirates and Qatar Airways are already renowned for the comfort of their cabins — and not just in business class. And that’s not their only asset. Their food offering is also gaining plaudits.
Kuwait Airways, in particular, is being singled out. The airline came first in a ranking based on 27,000 traveler opinions about the inflight meal offerings of around a hundred carriers. Established by the MoneySuperMarket website, this listing reveals that Middle Eastern airlines know how to make their passengers happy.
