Qatar Airways is helping Muslim passengers to break their fast on board flights during Ramadan by serving a delicious Iftar meal consisting of traditional Middle Eastern specialities.

The Iftar boxes feature a bespoke design inspired by Arabian calligraphy and will be offered on selected routes across the Middle East, Algeria, Tunisia, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan.

Each box contains a selection of sweet and savoury delicacies. The Iftar boxes are offered in addition to Qatar Airways’ traditional meal service for those customers who are not fasting.

First and Business Class passengers will receive Iftar boxes containing a selection of crudités, hummus, mini Arabic bread, chicken shawarma, focaccia with mozzarella, olives, dates, banana, fresh laban and water.

Economy Class passengers can enjoy Iftar boxes filled with focaccia with mozzarella, apple slices, mixed nuts, finger baklava, dates, shortbread, marble cake, fresh laban and water.

During flights, Qatar Airways cabin crew will make an announcement and serve the Iftar boxes at the appropriate time during the flight, freeing passengers from having to calculate the time.
