BusinessFirst Dining

Continental Airlines has won numerous awards for its international BusinessFirst service and offers an international dining service that's in a class by itself. Our Congress of Chefs & Sommeliers carefully select menus and wines for each country we serve, many times highlighting local specialty items.

Our BusinessFirst meal service includes a wide variety of delicious menu selections as well as premium wines and champagne, all served in style with our newly designed china and serviceware. And save some room, because every service includes a choice of decadent desserts that will make your mouth water.

BusinessFirst also has a popular alternative for those that wish to sleep or work during the scheduled meal service. Our "Executive Meal Option" allows you to dine at anytime during the flight, just let your crew member know when you are ready.
