Order your Qantas special meal online in four steps. You can order a special meal on Qantas in Manage booking on qantas.com, at least 24 hours before departure, or 36 hours for a kosher meal. Special meals aren’t available in Economy on domestic flights under three and a half hours, so check your flight first. Frequent Flyers can skip the steps entirely by saving a meal in their travel preferences. To choose a meal, see our list of Qantas special meals and their codes.

What Happens Next

Your meal’s status shows in Manage booking, so check it there before you fly. To cancel, select “No special meal” at least 48 hours before departure. If you change your own flight, you’ll need to add the meal again. If Qantas changes your flight or you’re upgraded more than 24 hours before departure (36 for kosher), your meal moves with you, but within that window it may not be available. If your trip includes a Qantas flight operated by LATAM or Aircalin, order at least three days before you fly. If you can’t see the option at all, check your flight is eligible, or contact Qantas or your travel agent.
