A business class passenger on Virgin Australia, where seats can cost more than $ 2,500, attacked the airline after they were allegedly served two-minute noodles for their meal.

The flyer posted a photo of the snack and soda online, prompting some to label it “gruesome” and a “joke.”

Economy class passengers reportedly get a granola bar, but only for those who request it.

The airline went bankrupt at the beginning of the year and has new owners, Bain Capital. The complementary snack supply chain is reported to be very limited.

It is also claimed that some staff members are taking sick leave to prevent abuse of the steering wheels.

Virgin Australia says it seeks to minimize interactions between crew and passengers.

According to Airline Ratings, a spokesperson said: “The safety and well-being of our guests is always our top priority and we have a variety of security measures in place throughout our customer journey to minimize the risks associated with Covid-19, including a limited service on board.

“As demand for travel begins to increase, we are exploring the possibilities of our Business Class offering on board, while continuing to prioritize the safety and well-being of our guests and crew. We look forward to offering this limited business class offer to our guests soon. “

Virgin Australia Group entered voluntary administration on April 20 due to nearly $ 7 billion to creditors.

Due to the impact of Covid-19 on the airline that was already in financial difficulties, it suspended all international flights and closed its base in New Zealand, putting more than 600 employees out of work.
