All Nippon Airways (ANA) now offers passengers the option to cancel their in-flight meal and switch to a sandwich.
Passengers can select the “No Thank You Option” meal plan via the ANA website up to 24 hours before their flight departs, while business and first-class passengers on certain routes can switch to a Quick and Light Meal.
The change is part of ANA’s efforts to reduce food waste and improve eco-friendliness, and to allow passengers to rest or avoid being disturbed during their flight.
The move comes as many airlines expand their pre-departure lounge offerings, leaving some travellers less hungry when boarding the plane.
