UPGRADED KOSHER MEALS:

Partnering with kosher fresh food provider Fresko, meals on the Newark to Tel Aviv flight will feature an entirely new menu. Options will include dishes such as fresh bagels, cheese omelet, blintzes, chicken marsala, a kale quinoa burger, and traditional bakery items like rugelach and black and white cookies.

UPGRADED KOSHER KIDS MEALS:

As part of the introduction of these new dining options, United is also testing a menu offering for kids – a Kosher child’s meal in all cabins between Tel Aviv (TLV), and Newark (EWR) / San Francisco (SFO). If the testing is successful, the airline will roll out the meal selection on additional Tel Aviv routes.
