PASSENGERS travelling aboard Caribbean Airlines are set to experience the authentic taste of the Caribbean. They will even get a chance to have their local favourite of doubles.
A release from CAL on Tuesday stated, “From January 27, the airline will introduce a pre-order meal service, on select routes, which will give customers more choice and an authentic taste of the Caribbean when they fly.”
This offer is part of the airline’s focus on enhancing the customer experience, which was the overarching theme of its 2022 campaign: Reset Expectations.
It stated that customers can select from a range of meals and snacks at affordable prices, which can be bought at the time of booking their flights and up to 36 hours before the scheduled departure time.
“Passengers who purchase Economy Flex fares can pre-order meals at no additional cost and Business Class meals remain inclusive,” it stated.
Caribbean Airlines acting Chief Operations Officer Nirmala Ramai said this year was about re-calibrating “what we do and offering our customers a revamped experience.
“With the pre-order meal service, our customers can choose their own meals from our range of sumptuous offerings.”
She added that the menu incorporated a fusion of Caribbean and Western cuisine including doubles (curried chickpeas and bara) bake and fish, an array of wraps, delicious options for vegetarians and children.”
Ramai said the meals will be available for sale via the Caribbean Airlines website, mobile app, Reservations Sales and Service centre and travel agents from January 27, for flights from February 1.
