Lactose-Free Airline Food
Not that long ago, anyone traveling with lactose intolerance had to trust to luck and a pocket full of lactase pills.
Today's travel is much easier, at least with regard to that small aspect. TravelBite.co.uk noted that:
Singapore Airlines comes top for the most diverse range of meals, boasting 14 different categories, including kosher, Muslim, Hindu, vegetarian, diabetic, fat-free, gluten-free, low sodium, low calorie, non-carbohydrate and lactose free.
Admittedly, short hub trips within the U.S. normally don't serve any meals at all these days. However, longer in-country trips and almost all overseas flights will include meals.
Make sure you contact the airline before your flight and inquire about food options. (Well before, not last minute.) If lactose-free or dairy-free is not a direct option, ask about kosher, Muslim, vegan, or gluten-free meals. One of the alternatives will probably work.
If not, trust to luck and a handful of lactase pills.
