Important Notes

Flight Changes: If you change your flight or departure date, your pre-order may be cancelled and must be resubmitted via Manage Booking.

Special Dietary Meals: Pre-order meals are separate from special dietary meals. If you have a special dietary meal loaded, you cannot pre-order another meal until the first order is deleted.

Meal Substitutions: Malaysia Airlines reserves the right to substitute ingredients or menu items due to operational reasons.

Halal Certification: All meals, including pre-ordered meals, are guaranteed to be halal.

No Onboard Changes: Cabin crew cannot accommodate requests for alternate meals once onboard.

Bottom Line: Malaysia Airlines pre-order ensures you get your preferred meal choice, with Economy having a shorter booking window (36 hours) compared to Business Class Chef-on-Call (24 hours). Service is only available from Kuala Lumpur to select destinations.
