Korean Air will no longer offer instant noodles to passengers due to burn risks during turbulence

This airline doesn’t want to be in any hot water.

Korean Air will no longer provide economy class passengers with instant noodles on long flights to prevent burn incidents during turbulence — three months after rough air currents left an elderly passenger on another airline dead and dozens of others injured.

Starting on Aug. 15, the airline will remove Shin Ramyun — a spicy noodle dish that requires boiling water to prepare — from its in-flight snack offerings “in response to the increasing trend of turbulence,” it said in a statement.

The change is “part of a proactive measure” that is “aimed at preventing burn accidents,” Korean Air added.

The move comes after a Singapore Airlines flight in May encountered a severe turbulence incident that killed a 73-year-old man and injured scores of others who were thrown from their seats.

Last month, Korean Air announced that due to increased turbulence, it would finish long and medium-haul cabin services 20 minutes earlier for the safety of crew and passengers.
