Korean Air\u2019s premium catering blends traditional Korean flavours and modern culinary refinement. Building on a comprehensive overhaul of its in-flight dining programme last year \u2014 the first major refresh in over a decade \u2014 the airline introduced menus developed in collaboration with Chef Seakyeong Kim, owner of Cesta in Seoul. Featuring seasonal ingredients and innovative techniques, these new dishes bring a true gourmet experience to the skies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First class passengers enjoy a menu featuring an expanded selection of amuse-bouches and appetisers, alongside new main courses and desserts, such as papillote and petit fours. These additions complement signature Korean dishes, such as bibimbap, and an exclusive sommelier-curated wine programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing recognised for the third consecutive year at the Leisure Lifestyle Awards is a testament to Korean Air\u2019s unwavering commitment to service innovation,\u201d said Korean Air Executive Vice President and Chief of In-flight Service and Lounges David Pacey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This latest accolade adds to Korean Air\u2019s growing list of global honours. The airline was named Best Cabin Service at the APEX Best Awards 2026, earned the APEX Five Star Global Airline rating for the ninth consecutive year in 2025 and was named Airline of the Year 2025 by Airlineratings.com. Korean Air also holds a SKYTRAX 5-star Airline rating for the fifth consecutive year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
