Martin
Sedlacky, Chief Operations Officer of airBaltic:
“I am delighted that airBaltic was
recognised prominently along with product and service innovations by such
airlines as Delta, British Airways, Qantas, Air Canada, Norwegian. This is an excellent impetus
for us to keep working on other improvements in the future.”
Last
year airBaltic introduced a novel
food pre-ordering system that allows travellers to customize their in-flight
meal after they have booked their seat. Customers select their preferred items
onto their virtual airline tray and create their own inflight meal. Now
travellers are fully in control when customising their meals based on their preference,
dietary, medical, religious considerations.
Passengers can choose from a variety of more than 70 pre
order meal options onto their virtual tray, including vegetable risotto, fish
souvlaki, teriyaki salmon, grilled pork or chicken breast, served with one of nine
salads and one of nine types of dessert, and a drink of choice. airBaltic customers can now order their
inflight meal immediately upon completing their flight booking, or any other
time no later than 48 hours before departure.

its home base in Riga, Latvia. airBaltic
