Here are my lunch choices for first class JFK-LAS. I received the email but two other people on the itinerary did not, so I tweeted Delta to put in their choices. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...2f4850a3b.jpeg |
Antipasti plate as one of the only two options on a nearly 5 hour flight seems like a very meager offering.
|
I've had the antipasti plate several times, it's probably like 2500 calories.
|
Just wanted to add a data point.
Wife and I are flying D1 to Japan. About 70 hours before the flight we both received separate emails to preselect our meals. Both of our Skymiles numbers are on the reservation and both of our profiles contain our respective emails. We are also both medallion members. It seems like the system does work, just wish it would allow preselection in the app or on the webpage instead of an email. |
Question for those who've gone through the preselect process. Are the meal descriptions provided sufficient to determine if potential allergens might be present? For instance, in a previous post, there was an entry for a grilled chicken salad, with no mention of nuts. So would I be relatively confident in ordering it if I was allergic to nuts? On the plane, I have the option of asking the FA about ingredients. But I wonder if I preselect a meal that ends up having something I can't eat, am I out of luck?
|
So far mine have been pretty spot-on. Wording may be a little off but the ingredients list has always been accurate.
But on the other hand, is it really worth it? My mother has a nut allergy and I know she will never chance it. |

Flying home LAS-MSP-TPA on Thursday and got the e-mail for LAS-MSP about 6 hours prior to MSP-TPA. Now for the choices:
LAS-MSP OATS N HONEY GRANOLA CEREALwith Chobani Greek yogurt, fresh fruit and croissantSCRAMBLED EGG PRETZEL ROLLSwiss cheese and turkey Canadian baconMSP-TPA (I'll eat in the terminal): ANTIPASTI PLATE**prosciutto, salami, grilled red and yellow peppers, marinated mozzarella balls, grilled zucchini and asparagus, artichoke hearts, provolone wedge, kalamata olives**contains Pork CHICKEN PUTTANESCA CIABATTA MELTolives, capers and mozzarella cheeseInterestingly, one of the choices on the return is a chicken pesto sandwich, which I presume is the exact same thing with pesto instead of puttanesca. Needless to say, I’m going with the southwest chicken Caesar. |
My wife and I are traveling D1 PDX-AMS. Both of us have Skymile accounts, and both have emails listed in our profile. I have received the pre-order email she has not. Being retired neither of us now have FF status.
Is there some way we can pre-order a meal for her?. Not a big deal if it can't be done I'll just order her meal on my selection and take a chance they have what I wanted on the day. |

Phone agents can do this and they can also tell you details of the meal choices, although it's pretty new, so some might still say "chicken or fish" without describing the choices. Some phone agents are also confused about whether you're trying to order a special meal, such as diabetic or vegan, which requires 48 hours, versus pre-ordering from the meals that will be offered on your flight, which requires 24 hours (and really starts with the emails sent out 65-70 hours--not 72--in advance of scheduled departure time). |
