Eurowings Serves L'Osteria Pasta On Board – New Menu Item Starting in November

Love of Pasta Above the Clouds: A New Dish at Eurowings

Anyone traveling soon with Eurowings toward Mallorca might notice a familiar aroma in the aisle: Starting in November the airline will offer a new menu item — the colorful Maccheroncini Colorati from L'Osteria's menu. The dish consists of fresh pasta, grilled vegetables, cherry tomatoes, and onions in a tomato sauce. It sounds simple, but it feels hearty and honest, especially on a shorter medium-haul flight.

Introduction in Marratxí with Unexpected Cooking Talent

The announcement took place on a well-attended evening at the Mallorca Fashion Outlet in Marratxí. Not an official press photo, but more of a local scene: guests, outlet visitors and a few curious Mallorcans crowded at the counter. Surprising for many: The Eurowings chief himself rolled up his sleeves and stirred in the pot — not just words, but actions. Such scenes linger, even if they come with a bit of PR charm.

For Eurowings, this is more than a new dish: It signals a collaboration with a well-known system gastronomy operator. L'Osteria has expanded significantly in recent years and now operates hundreds of outlets in several countries. The partnership offers passengers an alternative to the usual onboard meals — and for the airline a chance to profile itself in a crowded market.

What Travelers Can Expect

Practically speaking: on short- and medium-haul flights, especially on routes to Mallorca, the pasta can be ordered in the onboard shop. Whether it becomes a permanent standard offering depends on demand and logistics. Eurowings flies frequently in the summer: hundreds of connections per week from German airports to Palma speak for themselves — expanding the menu makes sense there.

My take? Not a revolution, but a nice option for travelers who want something fresher than the classic airline sandwich. And personally: I find it charming when a head chef — or in this case a manager — personally wields the cooking spoon.
