India (AI)<\/a>, India\u2019s leading global airline, introduces a refreshed international in-flight menu that blends authentic Indian regional cuisines with global influences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The menu launches progressively from November 2025 on most international routes departing India, including Delhi (DEL) to London Heathrow (LHR), New York (JFK\/EWR), Washington Dulles (IAD), Toronto (YYZ), Melbourne (MEL), Sydney (SYD), and Dubai (DXB).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Air India extends the offering to flights from Mumbai (BOM) and Bengaluru (BLR) to San Francisco (SFO), Mumbai (BOM) to New York (JFK\/EWR), and other sectors, with full rollout across all international and domestic routes in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curated by recently appointed Chef Sandeep Kalra, the menu draws inspiration from India\u2019s diverse culinary heritage, from the royal kitchens of Awadh and classic Delhi street food to authentic South Indian tiffin, while incorporating Pan-Asian, European bistro, and geo-specific star dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\"
