We are proud to introduce a menu that is inclusive, innovative, and crafted to spark joy, discovery and comfort in equal measure. This is not just a meal, it is an extension of Akasa’s care and customer-first ethos.”

Commitment to sustainability
As one of the greenest airlines in the world, Akasa Air’s efforts towards sustainability extend to Café Akasa as well. Packaging for all perishable meals is 100 per cent recyclable and made from paper, which is ethically sourced from sustainably grown crops. All packaging is manufactured without any bleach or other optical brightening agents (OBA) chemicals. The wooden cutlery onboard is also biodegradable. Moreover, passengers can pre-book their meals before flying with Café Akasa to avoid any wastage, as this allows all perishable meals to be accounted for.
Each meal is prepared with the highest hygiene and quality standards, reinforcing the airline's dedication to providing exceptional service to its valued customers.
Launched in October 2025, the new menu is available across the Akasa Air network.
