Passenger Asked For Vegetarian In Flight Meal And They Served Him Most Ridiculous Course Ever

Seems like people don’t understand what vegetarian means.

now. I’ve had many incidents where people were either very stupid or just didn’t care. I once ordered a ‘vegetarian’ pizza and they delivered a pizza with pepperoni on it. When asked apparently they didn’t know that pepperoni wasn’t vegetarian and just told me to pick it off.

There have been many more incidents that’ll take me days to write about so I’d rather not start my rant. However, what I am trying to say is I can totally relate to journalist James Hogarty who got one apple and a pear as a meal at flight. My bad! They were also wrapped in clingfilm.

Unsurprisingly, he was a bit pissed off,

And I would be too if I got served this as a ‘meal’. Avianca’s customer service, however, seems to be a bit better than their food standards.

As the airline responded on twitter. “Service is our priority, please let us know your flight date/number and also your contact information via DM. This is not our standard so we surely will investigate as soon as possible.”

Clingfilm makes everything better.

I asked for a veggie meal on a flight once and this is what I got. At least yours was wrapped pic.twitter.com/1yU8GCceO4
