Same but different to me...Yes, entirely. Because it's not that they discontinued vegetarian meals at all. They just discontinued choice.

Obviously. It's increasing because they will always have a vegetarian option - instead of it being either meat based or vegetarian.
On the other hand, customers are asking for long wait times...Following customer feedback in recent days....
Get ready to have plates filled with coriander and kale to appease the vegetarians. Want that chicken curry in business class? How about some olives and coriander and we call it a day? Also I notice nowhere are they talking about reintroducing other catering items that were paused due to COVID such as PDB in J. Surely they'd want to cater to those customers, especially with Virgin working their hardest to woo away customers from the roo!From their internal emails.

Vegetarian meals on all domestic flights
Following a clear message from our customers, we will be increasing our vegetarian meals on our domestic services. During COVID we simplified our economy meal offering on all domestic flights under 3.5 hours – this included a vegetarian meal on many flights, but not all. In the coming weeks, we’ll start carrying vegetarian options on all flights. We’ll also reintroduce fresh fruit on board, which was paused during COVID. We’re also in the middle of a broader refresh of the menu on domestic flights, including introducing new vegetarian options. Phil Capps, our Executive Manager for Qantas Product and Service said: “We’ve heard the message loud and clear about having vegetarian meals on all of our flights and so we’re making that change as a priority. There’s a lot of work happening to get Qantas back to its best and that includes listening to the feedback from our customers as we keep investing in our product and service.”
I don’t but I know various people personally who do - should I give a try?Anyone knows this Jon Dee? If only he could tweet about award tickting issue, maybe qantas would do something about it.
Does the Lindt chocolate ball (and bar) as well as the non-toasted sourdough still fall under vegetarian? I always wondered whether I could bring on board my Qantas rewards store toasterGet ready to have plates filled with coriander and kale to appease the vegetarians.

Nothing on the rocks?I can't remember the last time I accepted any of the domestic meals. Just a warm drink if offered.
Sadly I'm usually driving so don't like to risk anything.Nothing on the rocks?
Well, if someone posts/publishes that, then it would be true, yes?I'm still scratching my head wondering where Mr Dee got the idea that QF offers 'meals on all flights' anyway, vegetarian or not
No I don’t.Given we are just two weeks after the initial announcement and a *full* new menu has just been released which includes plant-based meats and vegetarian options… anyone else think this was all a bit of a marketing ploy?
For example the story about ending vegetarian meals was picked up by outlets such as SBS that might not otherwise run articles promoting a new QF menu. Now they will also likely publish an update to the original.
