All you need to know ↓✈️ 🇦🇪 I flew @emirates from London Gatwick to Dubai and then Dubai to Sydney in October 2025 - and here’s everything you need to know about eating gluten free onboard. 🍽 Pre-book your meal: Emirates offers a Gluten Intolerant Meal (GFML) which you can order via ‘Manage Your Booking’. It’s recommended to book earlier than 24 hours before your flight to make sure it’s confirmed and ready. 🥖 What I was served: Think meat and rice mains, fresh fruit, and gluten free bread rolls. Everything came clearly labelled and mostly packaged separately, with good variety and portion sizes. ⏰ When it’s served: Allergy meals are brought out around 30 minutes before the regular meals, which is great if you’re hungry early — but note that the drinks trolley comes round with the regular meals, so be prepared to wait about 30 minutes for drinks. 🍫 Top tip: Bring a few extra snacks for peace of mind (especially during layovers in Dubai), but overall, Emirates made eating gluten free feel smooth and stress-free. #GlutenFreeTravel #GlutenFreeFlying #EmiratesGlutenFree #GlutenFreeEmirates #CoeliacTraveller
