<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Just returned from a trip on Continental, Newark/Tampa, and had a disturbing experience re special meal order. Obviously I ordered GF meals both ways and what was served was marked as GF. (We were also sitting in first class thanks to our miles.) Going down I was served a salad, accompanied by a bread stick, plus 2 cellophane packages of "high gluten" wheat bread sticks, followed by a cooked green pepper with a gloppy red sauce over it, and cous cous on the side! Now, I ask you!! Returning home, there was a salad, then a cooked chicken breastand green beans over cooked barley! Where do these airline caterers get their instructions as to what is Gluten Free? Obviously they don't have a clue as to what our diet is. (Luckily I packed am emergency snack, in case the meal served was inedible. It's sad that we have to do that.) I plan to write a courteous but forceful letter to the Chairman of the airline, since he's the person listed in their special magazine as the one to whom we should address all complaints. Guess we have to keep trying! Has anyone had any luck with their special meal orders on any of the American based airlines? Cherry Marshall
