Hi there,
I am flying from DC to Lisbon in September (Economy Plus) and am wondering if anyone has any recent experience with the meals served in economy. I have two strict dietary restrictions (I don't eat pork or octopus) as well as some firm preferences and I don't know if I should order a special meal (which I often find disappointing if not downright awful, though don't have experience with TAP's) or chance it with whatever the general options are that day. Anyone eaten in economy when flying from the US to Portugal lately?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts

No recent experience in Y flights from the US, but I'd say it's unlikely pork (except maybe in the salad or in the pre-arrival sandwich in the form of ham) or octopus would be served. In any case, the only way to be certain is really to order a special meal...
