FAQ - In-flight services - Meals

For all destinations and travel classes, we provide - free of charge - meals or snacks (depending on your flight’s duration), as well as beverages, on board all Air France flights. When traveling in the Economy or Premium cabins on most long-haul flights, you also have the option to purchase one of our special “A la Carte” meals when booking your ticket in the “Review / modify your bookings” area of our website (up to 24 hours before your departure). Our “A la Carte” Menu offers you a wide selection of different meals, creating a truly unique culinary experience during your flight. Please note: if your Air France flight is provided by one of our partner airlines, you may have to pay for your in-flight meal in all cases.

If you need assistance during in-flight meals, you must be accompanied by another passenger. The accompanying person may be eligible for a special fare to certain destinations. For further information, please contact your booking office, travel agent or the Saphir assistance service.

However, the following items are permitted in the cabin:

These items are not subject to the maximum allowance (100 ml), and do not require a clear plastic bag. Please note: security officers may ask you to prove the nature of these substances, possibly requesting that you taste them.

If you wish, the flight attendants can provide a meal of prepared baby food. Be sure to request this when you make your booking, at least 24 hours before departure.
