Low-cost airline Jet2 (LS/EXS) has teamed up with international food chain Nando’s to bring the brands food onto its flights.

Known as “Peri-Peri Flight-Bites” the Nando’s snacks will be available to buy on board and will offer a welcome option for many who are fed up with bland sandwiches and Paninis.

The first product in the on-board range is a dip and dunk Nando’s Box, which includes houmous, Peri-Peri drizzle and salted pita chips. The second option available is Nando’s Half-popped Corn, something the airline describes as “a mild and delicious snacking option where fluffy popcorn meets crunchy corn.”

Jet2 says that its new In-Flight menu is the biggest and best yet, with a number of new additions to give customers more choice and variety than ever.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “The addition of these two fantastic snacking options give our customers even more great choice than ever, and mean that we are the first UK airline to offer Nando’s products on our In-Flight menu. We have already made a number of exciting changes to our In-Flight menu this year, and we are sure this brand new menu will delight customers even more. We pride ourselves on delivering the very best customer service in every area, which was recognised at the recent TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice™ awards for airlines where we won five awards, and we can’t wait for our customers to try the exciting choice on this new menu.”

Jet2 passengers could also have extra reason to feel sky-high with excitement this Summer with Nando’s vouchers being put in selected Nando’s Boxes onboard, each voucher entitles one person to a free Nando’s meal.

Jet2 operates low-cost flights and packages holidays from airports around the UK including Leeds Bradford, Manchester, Birmingham, East Midlands, Edinburgh, Glasgow and London Stansted, Newcastle and Belfast..
