Hi
Does TG provide mid-flight snacks at the galley on European flights in Economy Class?

Thanks

No, not to my knowledge. Not even in C class. I'm sure if you ask nicely the staff will be able to find something for you (at least they did this for me in C) but you will not find a bar/buffet area with fruits, sandwiches, snacks etc like on some other carriers. You are suppose to sleep - not eat again - after the meal service is compleyed

I have seen this in F and C (depends on the crew) from BKK to Europe, but certainly there is always something available if you ask

You can have as many nuts as you want

Normally have pre packed sandwiches on offer on the LHR/BKK route.
Brought round by the cabin crew when most people are asleep if you miss out just go up to the galley and ask.

you could also ring up the FA; in TG they usually come in opposite to other airlines...

It's been years since I flew TG long-haul and where I felt like I wanted something between meals, and recall the sandwiches were available. They looked though like the same sandwiches that are available in their lounges (ex-BKK flights), so perhaps easier to just grab a handful of sandwiches in the lounge (if you have access) and then you won't have to worry about whether they're available on the flight, and which variety. Do the sandwiches in the lounge still come tightly wrapped in plastic wrap like they did before? I haven't even bothered to check as I'm no longer the least bit interested in sandwiches.

For me personally, after becoming a picky eater and wanting only items I consider healthy and in-line with my eating/health goals, I simply buy in advance any snacks I think I might need on the flight and bring them with me. That way I'm never disappointed, and the snacks I buy, relative to the cost of the flight, is so tiny that it's of absolutely no consequence. I used to be a bit silly and try to get as much for free as I could, whereas now I try to think about it more logically and choose the way that best suits me and my lifestyle and not worry about the small cost of something.

not anymore!

Your attitude is good and different than 95% of the passengers, who maximize the "get for free"-approach even it jeopardizes their health or is hazardous to environment!

You can also ask for MAMA noodles in a plastic cup. Available in every class from Y-F

asnarong

You can ask the staff,there is always nut,snack,fruit,noodle,sandwich,sometimes ice cream for you in all class

You can certainly ask for instant noodle.
I used to get them served in a nice bowl with some pork/fish meat ball in C.
I think it would come in a cup version in Y.

Must you ask for the bowl (as per breakfast) or do they serve it as such?

I had to quarrel once with the purser to get instant noodles served (in J class) as snacks, so I never bothered to ask them anymore.

BinSabai

unbelievable what miserable, lazy purser TG sometime has...of course you can have this on any long haul flight!
but it's not healthy!

anaidross

Thank you for the tip.

I am just curious if they serve the mama in a bowl in J / F or just in a cup?
