Reducing Food Waste
We are pleased to be playing our part in reducing food waste in the airline industry.
Everyday, thousands of kilos of fresh food is disposed of by airlines - this is due to overstocking fresh items and the health & hygiene regulations that have to be followed.
In an effort to drastically reduce our own food waste, we have become a pre-order only airline. Specifically on our fresh sandwich range, this now means that we no longer load a set number of each item on our flights. Instead, all fresh sandwich products must be pre ordered.
This way, we only load fresh sandwiches onboard that are pre paid for and will be consumed.
WHAT IS OFFERED?
We offer a drink & snack service on all flights.
The range of products available on board will differ depending on the duration of the flight and aircraft type used.
On flights scheduled to take more than 2 hours, pre order hot meals or sandwiches are available to purchase. If you are flying on our LINKS operated ATR aircraft you can only pre order cold sandwich products and snacks. This must be done at least 24 hours prior to travel.
