Choose your meal before your flight.
First Class Pre-Select is available on most Boeing and Airbus flights over 3.5 hours. That's 100 flights daily, including all coast-to-coast and West Coast to/from Hawaii flights; we're planning to offer it on all flights in 2019. First Class guests can choose between two main dishes, or have an Alaska's Signature Fruit and Cheese platter, served on a plate.
To get started, make sure you’re using the latest version of the Alaska Airlines mobile app.
Here's how First Class Pre-Select works
First Class meal options can be reserved from 24 hours to two weeks prior to your flight.
Within the app, head to the Trips section and then select your upcoming flight.
Once you're looking at the full details for your upcoming flight, scroll down and click the "Food menu" option.
Next, you'll see a menu of the complimentary meals available on your flight.
Choose the meal you'd like, then click the arrow to confirm your choice.
Presto! Your meal is pre-selected. The flight attendant will deliver it during your flight's meal service.
Note: if you change flights, your meal choice will not transfer to the new flight. You'll need to make a new choice within that new reservation.

Bugs in the system still?
I have a flight from SEA to JFK this next week and preorder is available on the outbound and not on the return. Seems odd. I’ve checked back a few times this week but nothing changes.

What's the flight #/time? Seems unlikely for JFK-SEA, but depending on the time of departure they sometimes have an abbreviated service (e.g. just a pita plate on EB transcon redeyes often)

It’s AS 359 and it is a 6:40pm departure (JFK to SEA) and it is shown as a dinner flight in the details and won’t give me the chance to preorder. That’s why I thought it was odd and maybe a bug. The flight on the way there (AS426) is a breakfast flight and the option popped up right at 2 weeks like it should. This one, not so much. Any suggestions?

I tried searching and did not see this in the sticky part of the WIKI, I am a free agent but typically go on American F. Headed back to SAN again and am once again considering taking the trek to MCO instead of TPA for the afternoon non stop service on AK. I have considered it in the past but ended up going with AA. This is an early dinner flight and I always enjoy on American being able to pre-order/see the menu. Does Alaska offer this in the application or does it only appear after you pay for your ticket?
On AA you can make a dummy booking to see the menu.
Thanks in advance!

Pre-Order dinner available on HNL-OAK. First time I've seen this on an OAK flight. Cheese Ravioli, Fruit Plate, or Beef Filet.
