Emirates is discontinuing the ‘Hindu meal’ option from its in-flight menu.

Its updated menu now offers options like Vegetarian Jain Meal, Indian Vegetarian Meal, Kosher meal and Non-Beef non-vegetarian.

The airline’s decision to withdraw the ‘Hindu meal’ option from the menu was taken following a review of its onboard products and services.
