The NLNL or Non-Lactose meal is a lactose-free meal for people who are allergic or intolerant to milk and milk products, or those suffering from low lactose levels. Meals do not contain any milk, cheese, egg, yoghurt, butter, biscuits, cakes, ice cream, instant soups, breaded vegetables and meat, omelettes and crepes.
Instead the offering may include meat, chicken, fresh vegetables, cereals, lactose-free fruit, soya milk and non-dairy products.
Be cautious when ordering this meal as some airlines use the NLML code for what is a low lactose special meal which may contain traces of lactose. Always double-check with the airline, and check once you receive your meal inflight.
If you need to check on a specific airline view the airlines section to read about the airline you’re flying with.
