DINING

First Class dining

Savour fine dining whenever the mood takes you in First Class – whether you crave a full meal or a tasty midnight snack
  • Enjoy a culinary adventure

    From gourmet bites and rich caviar, to a fine multicourse meal or a movie snack, dining in First Class is always a unique experience.

    Our chefs take you around the world with authentic dishes made using local seasonal ingredients. For example, you can expect Australian Angus beef and Yarra Valley cheese, Italian olive oil and produce from local farms in Japan.

    Order any dish to your Private Suite at any time and dine from exclusive Royal Doulton fine chinaware with Robert Welch cutlery.

  • Carefully crafted amuse-bouche

    Start your journey with a selection of amuse‑bouche, compliments of the chef. Our bite‑sized, gourmet hors d’oeuvres will tempt your taste buds before you explore more of our menu. Enjoy your light bite with a premium drink from our list.

Seasonal specials on board

Discover delicious dishes from the region you’re flying in as you travel to your summer destination.

Our chefs always seek out seasonal favourites for our monthly menus, so on our UK flights this July, you can enjoy delicious strawberry desserts in every travel class. On our Italian routes this August, try our fresh burrata cheese and fennel salad in First and Business Class.

Savour delicious vegan creations

Enjoy creative dishes that are meat and dairy-free

Explore new flavours with our selection of inventive vegan dishes, whether it’s a full three-course meal or a movie snack. Enjoy dishes like our zucchini tart, jackfruit biryani or vegan mapo tofu. And you can look forward to delectable vegan desserts like our chocolate truffle cake with roasted hazelnuts. Look out for the vegan icon on our menus.

Indulgent snacks and light bites
Enjoy unique dining experiences

Indulge in fine caviar

Enjoy generous servings of fine caviar at any time throughout your flight. We serve our caviar together with seven accompaniments, including melba toast, egg, chives, white onions, sour cream and lemon. And we take care to preserve the taste by serving our caviar with a mother-of-pearl spoon.

  • Settle in for movie night

    Turn down the lights, put on your noise-cancelling headphones, and enjoy a cinema experience complete with tasty bites from our Movie Snack menu. You can munch away on boxes of popcorn, vegan bites, mini burger sliders and other classic snacks while you watch your favourite entertainment. It’s always movie night on our flights.

  • Sweeten the journey

    There’s always room left for a little sweet indulgence. Take your pick from our selection of fine luxury chocolates and sweets. You can even ask your crew to prepare a little box to take with you after the flight as a gift or a treat for yourself.

  • Meals to suit your lifestyle
    As well as our vegan meals, we have a selection of healthy options that contain low levels of saturated and trans fats, salt and sugar. Look for the healthy meals icon in our menus. You can also order a meal to suit your dietary requirements up to 24 hours before your flight.
  • Indulge in more in our A380 Onboard Lounge
    Take a stroll to our lounge to enjoy a drink with other travellers. You can choose from a selection of sandwiches, snacks and bite-sized desserts to enjoy around the table or to take back to your seat.
