With extensive changes to its in-flight services in the premium classes, Lufthansa is satisfying the requirements and wishes of its passengers even more closely on both its long-haul and short-haul routes – in keeping with its motto: ‘Nonstop you’. But, would you like to order aeroplane food and enjoy in it in the warmth of your home? Yes, it’s now possible, since a company in Cologne and Dusseldorf is now offering takeaway meals based on Lufthansa’s in-flight menu. The aim is to provide meals of convenience made with fairly fresh food, with a changing menus that change every week and options for vegetarians.
“Some of our customers called us and said we love to eat fresh food, but we don’t want to have convenience food,” says Max Thinius the spokesman for All You Need, the company behind the service.
To answer their call, in August the company teamed with LSG Sky Chefs, the catering arm of German airline Lufthansa to launch Air Food One.
Air Food One offers neatly packaged main courses made by Lufthansa’s catering firm, which include options like chicken breast on top of mushroom mash or cannelloni with ricotta.
Still in an eight-week trial period that Thinius describes as its “pre-pre-pilot stage,” the service currently makes once-weekly deliveries in Cologne and Dusseldorf where the LSG kitchens are based.
