UNITED AIRLINES ADDS MID-FLIGHT TAPAS SERVICE ON LONGHAUL POLARIS ROUTE
United Airlines is changing up its Polaris business class meal service once again with a new service flow and the addition of a mid-flight tapas meal on a test route starting next month. There are also elements of the existing service that will be disappearing.

... This trial will begin on November 1, 2023 and occur only on the San Francisco – Singapore route (in both directions). It will also modify the way in which meals are served and eliminate popular desert items like the cheese plate and fruit tart.
  • A separate paper tapas menu card will be boarded for passengers to select their mid-flight offerings
  • It will placed on the console table with the original paper menu
  • The completed card with preferences will be collected during meal orders or any time before the mid-flight service
  • The mid-flight service will formally occur at the midpoint of the flight as based on flight time
  • Meals will be served on a tray and include four tapas style items (two hot and two cold options) with cutlery, a cocktail snack, condiments, packaged dessert, and choice of beverage
....
The tapas will replace the grilled cheese sandwich and soup that are currently served on flights over 10 hours as a mid-flight snack.
