National – Café Akasa, Akasa Air’s onboard meal service, has introduced a nutrition packed special meal to celebrate International Yoga Day in June. The exclusive meal will be available  on flights until 30 June across the network and includes a refreshing sprouted bean and millet salad mixed with pomegranate seeds and lemon olive oil dressing, accompanied by a delectable sweet  potato halwa & a choice of beverage. 

Millets have been an integral part of our diet for centuries. In addition to a plethora of health benefits,  millets are also good for the environment with low water & input requirement. With the aim to create  awareness and increase production & consumption of millets, United Nations, in collaboration with the  Government of India, declared 2023 the International Year Millets. This special meal is an ode to this  mission.  

International Yoga Day reignites conversations to focus on one’s overall well-being and incorporating a  balanced meal and an emphasis on health, while travelling outside of one’s home, goes a long way in  making the most of the physical and mental benefits of yoga. The special meal by Café Akasa has high  nutritional value with nourishing and hearty ingredients and has been prepared by culinary experts, to  celebrate the spirit of good health on the occasion of International Yoga Day. This meal is an exclusive  addition to Café Akasa’s healthy and vegan offerings and is a perfect choice for those who are looking  for light meal options while travelling.
