On the vast majority of long-haul international flights (e.g., NYC to London or Dubai to Sydney), the Economy Class meal is included in the price of your ticket, meaning there is no "extra" cost at the time of service. These meals usually consist of a hot entree, a side salad, bread, and a dessert. However, on "Low-Cost Carriers" (LCCs) like Norse Atlantic, AirAsia, or Jetstar, and on most domestic flights within the US and Europe, meals are not included. On these airlines, you can expect to pay between $10 and $25 for a hot meal if you pre-order it online, or $8 to $15 for a "snack box" or sandwich purchased from the onboard cart. Some airlines, like Singapore Airlines or Emirates, are famous for their high-quality "free" meals, while others have moved toward a "buy-on-board" model even for medium-haul flights. If you have specific dietary requirements (Vegan, Halal, Gluten-Free), these "Special Meals" are also free of charge on full-service airlines but must be requested at least 24 hours in advance. To save money, many travelers choose to buy a meal at the airport terminal, which is often higher quality and cheaper than the "buy-on-board" options offered at 35,000 feet.
