Virgin Atlantic’s new Autumn and Winter menu brings the spirit of India to life at 35,000 feet. Inspired by the vibrant flavors of the festive season, this special menu offers a delightful fusion of modern British cuisine and authentic Indian dishes across all cabins. From indulgent treats to lighter, wellness-focused choices, every bite promises a taste of India’s rich culinary heritage.
A Taste of Tradition:
Virgin Atlantic is the in-flight experience with a range of beverages designed to complement the delicious menu. From a comforting cup of spicy chai tea, available to all, to exclusive treats for Upper Class, there’s a perfect drink for every palate. Upper Class passengers will be greeted with the “Manipura,” a refreshing new welcome drink with lemon, ginger, and a masala-spiced lemon garnish. Onboard from October, Economy and Premium customers can also enjoy Lucky Saint, a refreshing non-alcoholic beer option.
Prepare your palate for a culinary adventure through India, right onboard your Virgin Atlantic flight. This festive season, travelers flying between London Heathrow and India can savor a selection of authentic dishes, including:
- Lamb Dahwalla: A rich and aromatic lamb curry, served with tomato and coriander okra and flaky paratha
