American Airlines is bringing even more flavor to the skies, expanding its destination-inspired dining program to routes across Oceania and South America. Following the successful launch on select European flights earlier this summer, this culinary initiative is the latest way American is enhancing the customer experience one delicious bite at a time.

Customers can now savor the essence of their destination before they even arrive — or relive the flavors of their travels while heading home. Whether you’re flying for business or adventure, your taste buds are cleared for takeoff.

Oceania routes: Culinary journeys down under

Starting this fall, customers flying in Flagship® Business to Sydney (SYD); Auckland, New Zealand (AKL); and Brisbane, Australia (BNE), can enjoy chef-curated menus that celebrate the bold, vibrant flavors of the Pacific. The focus is on fresh ingredients, umami-rich sauces and modern takes on local favorites.

Sweet chile sea bass and Kona-crusted beef filet

What’s on the menu in Flagship® Business:

  • Sweet chile sea bass — perfectly glazed and served with light couscous, tender bok choy and roasted carrots for a balanced, flavorful dish
  • Kona-crusted beef filet — a nod to island flavors, featuring rich sweet potato mash, sauteed kale and a silky balsamic demi-glace

These entrees are designed to deliver restaurant-quality taste bringing global influence and local inspiration straight to your tray table.

South American routes: Bold, soulful and satisfying

American is also introducing new inflight menus on return flights from Buenos Aires, Argentina (EZE); Montevideo, Uruguay (MVD); and Santiago, Chile (SCL). These menus embrace the heart and soul of South American cuisine, blending comfort with elegance across all cabins.
