Jetstar has revamped its in-flight menu introducing healthier meal and vegetarian options on selected domestic, trans-Tasman and long-haul international flights.

Rolling out today, Jetstar passengers will have the option to pre-order salads from the popular food retailer Sumo Salad which include lentil and tabouli and pumpkin cous cous salads. The expanded menu will also include several other vegetarian options, such as tabouli wraps and mini spinach rolls, as welll as popular 'sliders'.

The pre-order meal range has now expanded from four to up to 16 options across the airline's Australia and New Zealand network.

The move is the latest effort by the budget carrier to boost its reputation on in-flight meals. Earlier this year, Jetstar partnered with My Kitchen Rules (MKR) to offer Drasko and Bianca's winning MRK flight meal - lamb with saffron cauliflower. The meal was available for pre-purchase from April 14 to July 14, 2015 on Jetstar international flights over five-and-a-half hours long.
