NEW DELHI: Air India has drawn up a detailed protocol for onboard meal and beverage service as it is set to resume the same shortly. A separate standard operating procedure (SOP) has been worked out for inflight service on ultra long, long and medium haul flights. Hot meals and beer (in cans) will be served on international flights. Short routes with a flying time of up to 60 minutes will keep small (200 ml) water bottles and single use disposable units of juice in aircraft galley.
\n\u201cAs distribution of meals will result in passengers taking off their masks, the service and clearance must commence from the farthest point in each zone and conclude in the respective galley\u2026. Special care should be taken while handling used items, ensuring minimal touch and cross contamination\u2026 For clearance, after appropriate announcement use a garbage bag and follow the same row wise sequence as is done for the service,\u201d AI\u2019s revised SOP says.
\nOn Boeing aircraft \u2014 B777, B787 and B747 that are used for North America, Europe, Australia and Far East flights \u2014 a snack box with water bottle will be placed on passenger seats by the caterer across all classes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
