Delta To Provide gluten-free Meals

so i was trying to book a flight to Spain today for May and needed to fly Delta but wasn't about to not have a gluten-free meal with such a long itinerary (i eat like every hour on the hour so i knew i'd starve if i just snacked!). so i called up Delta to find out if they served one, because it wasn't listed on their website, and after many, many minutes of cell phone time i talked to a lovely representative named Anita who said that, as of April 1, Delta will provide gluten free meals on flights where complimentary meals are served. isn't that great?! so if you book a flight with them before April 1, the code (GFML) won't be in their system to request the meal, but you can wait until later and then call and request it. Just remember to do it at least 12-24 hours before your flight. hope this info helps!

Just be careful with their gluten free meal. Others here have had horrible experiences with "gluten free" airline food. I'm not saying that your experience will be bad, just make sure you read labels on the prepackaged stuff and remind the stewardesses not to throw a roll on top of your meal before they serve.

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Hello everyone, I am a young adult living with both Celiac disease and achalasia. I am looking for some inspiration to start raising awareness for people with Celiac disease on instagram. Please reach out to me if you have any tips and ideas on what is important to share to the world.
