The new service allows passengers to order food and drinks before departure
Spanish flag carrier, Iberia celebrated International Recycling Day on Monday (May 17) by inaugurating its ‘Deliverfly’ scheme, which aims to improve customer experience whilst reducing waste on its aircraft.
This new initiative allows customers to purchase from a large range of hot and cold dishes prior to departure.
As part of health and safety protocols, the airline stopped providing its ‘buy on board’ retail service due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Now, only the food specifically ordered by the passengers will be boarded onto the plane, eliminating food waste and limiting fuel consumption resulting in a reduction in CO2 emissions.
The service is available on short and long-haul flights, with fresher food needing to be ordered a few hours prior to take-off.
