Jet2 set to offer Nando's food on board... but won't serve chicken

Jet2 will start offering Nando’s food on its flights – but won't serve any chicken.

The airline says it will be the first in the UK to offer the chain’s food in the air.

Jet2 will offer houmous with pitta chips and half-popped corn, a cross between popcorn and crunchy corn.

But it will not offer chicken, for which Nando's is best known.

The products will be introduced just before the summer.

The airline will also be placing Nando's vouchers in selected boxes on board which entitles one person to a free meal back on the ground.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2, said: “The addition of these two fantastic snacking options give our customers even more great choice than ever, and mean that we are the first UK airline to offer Nando’s products on our in-flight menu.”
