Delicious food on the plane? It’s possible

Going on a long-distance holiday again soon? Make sure you can already enjoy yourself on the way by booking with an airline that wins awards for its inflight meals. Apparently, the classic chicken or pasta is the very best in business class at Qatar Airways. Flying economy? Then Singapore Airlines is your best choice.

Those inflight meals are sometimes horrible to contemplate, sometimes a pleasant hour of distraction as you fiddle around with a plastic knife, tubs of butter and mini toasts, and very occasionally a real treat. That’s clear from the awards Skytrax presents every year to the airlines with the best service, the most comfortable seats and the best inflight meals.

According to Skytrax, the business-class meals Qatar Airways conjures up in those tiny kitchens are the very best. And if you’re booking Qatar Airways anyway: its business-class lounge also tops Skytrax’s rankings, as does the comfort of its seats. Flying economy? Then you can enjoy a tasty meal from the plastic trays of Singapore Airlines. Good seats? Japan Airlines. And when it comes to European airlines, Turkish Airlines’ economy class is recommended by the experts.
