TUI Airways has warned customers flying from 15 UK airports that food will be 'limited'. In a move unlikely to be welcomed by passengers, the operator said that a change to their services means they can, for now, no longer serve hot and cold meals or sandwiches.
They noted that the disruption does not affect any long-haul flights to Aruba, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Mexico, Orlando and St Lucia and meal services on these flights will 'continue to operate as normal.'
In a statement on May 5, they confirmed that the issue was due to "staff shortages" which would take place over the coming days and in total affects 15 airports - including two in Scotland reports the Mirror. TUI explained: "We can confirm that unfortunately due to staff shortages with our catering supplier, there will be no hot and cold meals or sandwiches, and a limited offering of snacks and drinks, available onboard TUI Airways short- and mid-haul flights over the coming days.
