Online PR News – 12-March-2011 –Vijay Mallya-owned Kingfisher Airlines Ltd bought low-fare carrier Air Deccan in September 2007 and rechristened it Kingfisher Red, but unlike most of its rivals offered food free to passengers. That has now changed.
“With effect from 15 January 2011, we will be discontinuing the complimentary food service on board Kingfisher Red flights,” the airline said in an email to frequent flyers last week.
While short-haul flights, such as Delhi-Dharamsala, will serve only cold menus, passengers on longer flights can order hot breakfast, lunch and dinner for an additional Rs.200 when booking the ticket. The airline will also sell hot beverages, fruit juices, rolls and sandwiches on board for Rs.50-150.
Low-cost carriers such as IndiGo, SpiceJet Ltd, GoAir and JetLite also sell food on board and allow passengers to pay separately for meals while buying tickets online.
