Inflight Spa

There's no more excuse to pig out on inflight chocolate bars and chips because there are no alternative snacks onboard Singapore Airlines. With its new emphasis on wellness and sustainability, the national airline is paying a lot more attention to healthy alternatives in its menus. Not only is its International Culinary Panel dreaming up lighter cuisine by replacing butter and cream with healthy olive oil, it's also supporting local farming operations by using more homegrown produce. Besides locally-grown vegetables and seafood from Singapore fisheries, SIA also tied up with Newark-based vertical farm Aerofarms to supply freshly harvested greens for its Newark-Singapore route. It's also embarked on a collaboration with Singapore-owned wellness brand COMO Shambala to serve the latter's wellness cuisine on selected flights from the second half of this year as part of the 'Book the Cook' service.
