Jet2 will now serve a Nando's snack on board

Jet2 passengers are in for a treat this summer if the latest addition to its in-flight menu is anything to go by.

The airline has become the first in the UK to give its customers a 'Nando's fix' on board its flights .

But don't get too excited just yet as its not the chicken meal you were probably hoping for.

Launching in time for summer, Jet2 will introduce 'Nando's PERi-PERi Flight Bites' - two sky high snacks infused with Southern African PERi–PERi spice.

One is the 'Nando's Box' which contains creamy houmous, smoky PERi–PERi drizzle and lightly salted pitta chips and the other is Nando's Half-popped Corn - a mild and delicious snacking option where fluffy popcorn meets crunchy corn.

Although you may not be able to get your go-to dish whilst on-board, once you touch down you may be entitled to a freebie as Nando's vouchers can also be found in selected boxes onboard, entitling one person to a free Nando's meal.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: "The addition of these two fantastic snacking options give our customers even more great choice than ever, and mean that we are the first UK airline to offer Nando's products on our In-Flight menu.

"We have already made a number of exciting changes to our In-Flight menu this year, and we are sure this brand new menu will delight customers even more."

Earlier this year Jet2 also introduced its first ever in-flight vegan meal.
