Alaska Airlines is elevating its premium onboard menu with the return of hot meals inflight in the Main Cabin. Fuelled by its pre-order program, the airline’s inflight menu offers a plethora of choices.

Premium Class and Main Cabin guests on most flights over 1,100 miles are able to choose from up to five chef-curated dishes, including at least one hot meal option. Along with freshly prepared food offerings like the Signature Fruit & Cheese Platter, Alaska Airlines’ hot meals are only available for pre-order purchase.

“We’re known for an inflight menu that is more thoughtfully curated with care,” said Todd Traynor-Corey, Managing Director of Guest Products, Alaska Airlines. “For a while now, our guests have often asked us if we’re ever going to bring back hot meals in the Main Cabin. It’s been difficult to keep it a secret – but for more than a year, our team has quietly worked behind the scenes taste testing the best hot food options with our culinary chef and creating a West Coast-inspired menu. Now no matter where they sit, guests will get to taste our world class food and beverages.”

Chef Tony Wright commented: “It was important to the Alaska team to create a menu based on guest feedback. The creative process of selecting meals that made the most sense for the West Coast-based airline and then sourcing the freshest ingredients was a labour of love for all of us who were involved in developing this menu. This airline truly cares about creating a premium onboard experience and we hope everyone experiences that with every bite of their food.”
