Since this thread happened before I ever found web-flyer I didn't read the info, therefore my new post on the subject. I have ordered diabetic meals which really were downright dangerous and obviously prepared by someone who doesn't understand that carbs are dangerous, not fats and even with special meals I have brought food along. This was on AA, international to Europe. I don't know if it is handled any differently anywhere else. Their reasoning again, was that they needed to have enough regular meals to offer coach passengers and it would create a problem offering a first class meal to someone in coach who would be sitting near someone who was getting regular coach fare. Understandable, but annoying.
