Muslim Meal
Most airlines define a "Muslim" meal as a meal without pork, as I have found of the hard way on airline like AC and LH.
Does anyone know of airline whose muslims meals have actually been prepared according to the halal method, not just "without pork"? Thanks |
you could see if kosher meals are closer to halal standards. most airlines seem to offer them, tho from my experience, they aren't very tasty. i usally just bring a lot of foods i know i can eat, since i can't always find food that fits my needs.

quick solution...eat vegetarian! :)

This reminds me of friends who are devout Hindus who were told that only the beef was left. When they expressed shall we say ... disappointment, the FA's attitude seemed to be that they were being "picky". The trip had been organized at a late hour; they were unable to pre-order special meals.

As far as I know, Emirates, Kuwait Airways, Gulf Air, PIA, Iran Air. But it all depends from where the flight departs.

Also Qatar Airways, but ALL the meals supplied by these airlines are Halal, and there isnt a special meal. |

I've had Muslim meals on United transcon flights and they've all been vegetarian. Typically rice and potatoes with habshi halwa for dessert. Not bad, and not serving halal meat probably keeps costs down.

According to their website, Thai's Muslim meals include halal meat.
