Korean Air is discontinuing instant cup noodles, a favored snack in Korea, on its long-haul flights due to increasing turbulence incidents.
This change aims to prevent burn accidents from boiling water, following heightened safety concerns after a severe turbulence incident on a Singapore Airlines flight from London in May.
The popular in-flight ramyeon will be replaced with sandwiches, corn dogs, and hot pockets from August 15. Korean Air stated this decision is part of proactive measures to ensure passenger safety, especially in tightly seated economy class.
