Emirates catering
On their website the Emirates catering facility state they cater everyone of Emirates flights globally.
Is that true and the planes go out with both outbound and inbound meals or do they use out station catering like most airlines?
thanks.

I believe some flights are catered for the return, like CAI, but others on this forum will know more.

Sometimes that contractor is dnata, which is part of the Group.
It's not monolithic, sometimes elements of each class of service are return catered (e.g. sometimes the alcohol, cracker packs for Y, sealed things like the nuts etc.)

For all shorter flights up to approx 4 hours +- (direct turnaround) the catering is provided for both inbound and outbound flights. Such as AMM, BEY, CAI, MLE and IST, likely all Pakistan and India flights and some flights to destinations in Africa. Otherwise EK is handling things like all other airlines with Drinks and packaged items often catered for both flights etc.
