I am allergic to fish. On top of that, perhaps psychologically induced, I am completely grossed out at the smell of fish or anything fish related. I am not talking seafood here, but fish.. tuna, salmon, trout, etc..
Without fail, almost every meal to/from VCE has a BIG slice of fish. Now, I know the flight is only 1h30m, if that. And I certainly can live without eating for a period of time. But, like last Friday, I was a bit peckish and wanted something to gnosh on. Served was cold pasta tossed in olive oil and parsley with a BIG slice of salmon. Now, on most airlines these days, you might get a paper thin slice of turkey or something cheap. But noooooooo.. Not on AF.. You get a huge, thick piece of salmon.
I asked if there was anything else. Anything. Nope, just this. Nothing else. I have called AF a few times to ask if there is any way to order a fish-free meal. Fish allergy is not so uncommon. They said no. And on "snack" flights, as this was listed, you can't even order a special meal apparently.
