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.

      @trents thank you! I have only been taking 20mg 1x a day. Maybe I need to increase it.

OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.

I just wish doctors understood. I am with new gi and new pcp but im falling apart because blood work is fabulous.Im so ANGERY.I have reached out to my local representative, in Stanislaus but its just weekly stuff.Im going to need to physical go down there.Any recommendations on what to say and do because this is absolutely ridiculous. If I didn't have my husband though we are really hurting with one income, I would absolutely be one of the homeless population. Thats alarming begging to be heard about a diagnosis that was given as an adult and dealing with this, medical needs to stick to patients regardless of switching insurance or doctor.
