Anyone know the difference? I do. It's a big difference.

Tip: Buy a Kit Kat from your local Boots at LHR and buy and then do a taste test with the North American Kit Kat. Big, big difference.

HFCS.

OMG. Don't get me started.......British Cadbury Dairy Milk............

As one who routinely flies at the back of the bus for domestic/transborder trips, the KitKat has definitely replaced the large Lindt milk chocolate bar in the Air Canada Café BoB menu. My last two International Business Class flights have had the KitKat and Lindt dark chocolate bars in the snack basket, but no Lindt milk chocolate bars.

My interpretation is that the Lindt milk chocolate has been replaced. If that is the case, I am disappointed.

Thank you for explaining.

100% identical to the below YYZLHR October 2015 menu, except the menu code is slightly different.

17-A-NJHM9EGP-NJMSNR5-NJHCHBALA 10/15
I tried the ricotta ravioli this time on 872.

I quite enjoyed it and will probably order it again next time. Aside from the beef dishes, I find that AC's int'l fare to be quite good... an improvement from years past. ^

I don't live anywhere near a T&T

Also, so much more fun to bring them back for friends & family, with at least a receipt/ bag showing that I bought them in Japan.

Probably much cheaper too.

I found them at 3x+ the price at my local Korean/Japanese supermarket :S

A big bottle of "Milk Tea" is nearly $10!

Last time I was at NRT, right next to the AC gate, there were some Strawberry Cheesecake Kit Kat. They were pretty good ^

I remember forgetting to pick some up once, and SFette ran out the plane to grab some LOL

Do ittt!!!

I didn't like the red bean one. Just didn't like it. The "bitter" flavour was good.

That would be awesome. If AC offered "local" snacks on board (at least on the return flights). I wonder how difficult it would be logistically.

I can't imagine it being too difficult for the matcha Kit Kat though, as they were easier to find than "regular" Kit Kat.

Imagine if you could find this in the snack basket on TYO flights:

New International J Menu Booklet Cover Print - November 2015

November 2015

All white minimalist look and feel. The AC logo is embossed.

However, the format/fonts/colours of all pages within remain the same as the previous menus since the introduction of 788 service in mid-2014.
