Updated: 2024-11-11

**Air India** has officially announced that, effective **November 17, 2024**, **non-vegetarian meals served onboard will no longer be Halal-certified**.

This decision applies to flights across all classes, including **economy, business, and first class**, and is part of the airline’s broader policy adjustments.

To accommodate **Muslim passengers** and others who specifically require **Halal-certified meals**, Air India will continue to offer a **Muslim Meal (MOML)** option, which travelers can select when booking their tickets.

This **MOML option**, certified as Halal, must be **pre-booked** during the ticket reservation process to ensure availability.

It is important to note that only meals specifically ordered under this option will comply with **Halal dietary requirements**, while standard non-vegetarian offerings will not.

The **vegetarian meal** options available on Air India will continue to be served as per standard preparation but will also not hold Halal certification.

**Muslim travelers** are advised to check meal options carefully while booking and to select the **MOML (Muslim Meal)** for Halal compliance, as this will be the only Halal-certified option available onboard Air India flights going forward.
