WTCE shines a light on sustainable catering onboard

The World Travel Catering & Onboard Services Expo (WTCE) has released the first look at this year’s Taste of Travel programme.

The line-up features sessions focused on sustainable catering and the programme, curated in association with OnBoard Hospitality magazine and organised by editor Jo Austin, will feature a platform of educational content delivered through exclusive presentations, top passenger experience professionals and sustainability experts within the sector.

The programme will also see live demonstrations from some of the industry’s leading chefs, complemented by product sampling opportunities in the Taste of Travel Theatre.

Opening the first day of the programme, Marc Warde from Libero Special Meals will rationalise the dietary needs of special meal passengers whose requirements deserve to be placed at the top of the catering agenda. Joined by a panel of food and diet experts, they will lead a thought-provoking discussion on allergens, diets and the future of special meals onboard to enhance awareness on current meal codes.

WTCE event director Polly Magraw said: “We are very excited for the Taste of Travel programme to return to WTCE in person for the first time in three years. It is always a huge success and we can’t wait to welcome such a great line-up of chefs, consultants, airline and rail representatives to dissect the biggest trends currently dominating the industry. Ensuring customers receive the best passenger experience possible is the main priority, and the Taste of Travel Theatre aims to support this.”
