Wife is fully vegetarian and mostly vegan, though really tries to avoid direct eggs and dairy (ie, she won't eat scrambled eggs or drink a glass of milk, but will occasionally eat things with minimal amounts of these ingredients). She's debating whether to do a VGML or AVML for this flight. I assume the AVML is likely to be Indian-style (I know we've seen a Thai-style curry before, but I think only once on PE on EWR-SFO). Had some not great options on other carriers VGML before (ahem....AC), but I'm not sure she's ever tried on UA.
I've never heard of AVMLs or VGMLs in general to be route specific, but I mostly fly between Japan and the US and SIN flights might be different. Recently I've gotten the Thai curry about half the time and Indian curry most of the other times. I think the Indian meals have been vegan or close to vegan aside from a big tub of yogurt with breakfast, but I'm pretty sure I've had paneer in something at some point.
