Malaysian Airlines resumes serving hot in-flight meals

Malaysia Airlines will be providing hot in-flight meals again on board affected routes after its contract ended with Brahim’s Food Services (BFS) last month. The Malaysian Aviation Group (MAG), of which MAB is part of, said this was made possible with the arrival of 10 new hi-lift trucks ahead of schedule. “MAB anticipates the arrival of another 10 hi-lift trucks in the coming months, while proactively enhancing and fine-tuning its pre-packaged meal components during the interim period, with the aim of fully restoring the full meal service by mid-November this year,” said MAG in a statement yesterday. “The hi-lift trucks are an essential part of the overall airline in-flight meal process in upholding food quality and safety standards. They ensure that the meal carts are uplifted at the correct temperatures, preserving the freshness of hot and ambient meals, while also maintaining stringent practices throughout the process. In the absence of the hi-lifts, MAB temporarily suspended hot meal offerings to ensure food safety is not compromised,” it added. MAB had suspended hot meals on some of its flights earlier due to the absence of the hi-lift trucks.<br/>
