T'way Air to Completely Revamp In-Flight Meals for Medium- and Long-Haul Routes with Launch of Trinity Airlines

Grilled Eel and Truffle Cream Chicken Pasta Introduced
Special Muslim and Vegetarian Meals Also Available

T'way Air will completely revamp its in-flight meals for medium- and long-haul routes in line with the launch of Trinity Airlines.

On September 9, T'way Air announced that it would introduce new in-flight meal menus on medium- and long-haul international flights departing from Incheon starting September 10. This overhaul is designed to differentiate services by route and travel purpose, aligning with the 'SSC (Selective Service Carrier)' business model being promoted by Sono Trinity Group.

The SSC model selectively enhances services that are highly preferred by customers based on route characteristics and travel purposes, rather than providing identical services to all passengers. The plan is to maintain price competitiveness on short-haul routes, while enhancing premium services on long-haul routes, such as premium check-in, in-flight meals, and in-flight entertainment (IFE).

The number of complimentary in-flight meals varies depending on flight distance. On long-haul routes such as Europe, Sydney, and Vancouver, two meals are provided free of charge, while on medium-haul routes such as Jakarta and Singapore, one meal is provided free of charge. Special Muslim meals will be available on medium-haul routes, and other special meals such as vegetarian options can be arranged in advance through pre-order.

The in-flight meal format will also change from the traditional main course focus to a course-style service, including salad, bread served before the main meal, and dessert. In addition, all international routes will offer passengers complimentary bottled water and beverages, further expanding in-flight services.

In business class, T'way Air will introduce new dishes such as grilled eel and truffle cream chicken pasta. The grilled eel dish contains a generous portion of eel, and the truffle cream chicken pasta features the aroma of truffle. These are served alongside salad, seasonal fruit, bread served before the meal, and yogurt, and passengers can choose from wine and beer. The selection of bread served before the meal has been expanded to four types for greater choice. A vegan hamburger steak will also be available for vegetarian passengers.

For economy class, T'way Air will collaborate with CJ CheilJedang to offer Korean and Western dishes. Main options include soybean paste stew with gondre rice and chicken cream stew, served with salad and bread served before the meal. Vegetarian options include cabbage rolls with tomato coulis sauce, and carrot raita wraps, among others.

Starting with this in-flight meal overhaul, T'way Air plans to work with Sono International to develop signature beverages and exclusive in-flight meal menus unique to Trinity Airlines.

A T'way Air spokesperson stated, "In line with our new beginning as Trinity Airlines, we have prepared richer and more diverse in-flight meals. We will continue to enhance our service quality so that customers can enjoy a more satisfying travel experience on board."

Meanwhile, T'way Air plans to continue introducing next-generation aircraft such as the A330-900NEO and B737-8 within the year to strengthen its competitiveness in medium- and long-haul routes.
