CHICKEN NOT ON MENU FOR MAS FLIGHTS FROM CHINA

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 29 (Bernama) -- Malaysia Airlines (MAS) has removed chicken from its inflight menu for flights out of China, effective Thursday.

This follows the government's indefinite ban on chicken imports from that
country.

In a statement here, the airline said fish, mixed seafood and beef would be
served, depending on the sectors.

However, it said chicken would remain on the menu for flights out of
Malaysia, as the meat here is sourced from local farms.

Its general manager for inflight services, Hayati Ali said the safety of
passengers was the priority for MAS.
