I got the email for my flight to LHR later this week. Umm.. choices are pretty pathetic IMHO. What I need is a "try again" option :) Luckily since it's an 11 PM flight I was planning to skip meal service anyway.

I have experienced this mistake when flying out of MSP, LAX, JFK and SFO. There have been reports of this exact problem out of ATL, AMS and other huge hubs. These are all major international hubs that certainly should have all of the special meal options stocked. There is a pattern that clearly points to a problem in their system.

So again, are there any pics of the Diabetic Lunch & Dinners for long haul Domestic flights?

There's a thread dedicated to this type of question here in forum. Can't remember name at moment. It has pictures.

There is one for all meals, but anything for this type? On the AA forum, the Diabetic option is a popular choice, I just wondered how it was, on Delta?

Flying JFK to AMS on Friday in D1. No email yet. Any idea what options will be on this flight?

The thread I'm talking about should have a wiki at top which points to special meals with pics.

Got the e-mail for my LAX-ATL flight last week. Didn't get one for DTW-LAX on Sunday.

Thanks, this was my first time flying Delta long-haul to Asia... have always just ordered off the menu on other carriers and had never encountered this issue (the pax sitting directly behind me actually made this very point to the FA). Most of the other passengers seemed surprised/bewildered, as well.

I just checked the Delta website, and see that, indeed, DeltaOne customers can pre-order Korean, Chinese, or Japanese meals between the U.S. and the corresponding countries-- independent of the email pre-select option. This is great info.

I'll try to pass this tip along to other pax next time I fly Delta. As I previously stated, the rest of the A350 was great...this was my first time to encounter this "short catering" issue.

Yes, ordering lacto-ovo veg got me a vegan meal. :/ I wish I would have gambled on the regular meals - the grilled shrimp salad (I do eat fish) sounded good!

Does any airline consistently deliver a lacto-ovo meal rather than a vegan meal?

Yes. And DL consistently did until a year ago.

Well first time I received the email. Night flight - LIM - ATL in Delta 1 - DL 150 - I suppose I will be commenting on how tasty, or not, the Croque Monsieur is...

Have a JFK-BCN flight coming up this Saturday, no email yet. Hoping I'll get it for that one.

Strangely enough I did receive an email for a recent MSY-DTW flight for lunch selection.
