Fixing meals after travel agent

Dozens of flight companies with each several classes and several packages. I can understand it's not easy knowing which flight has which services.

Sometimes a small typo in reservations might cause interesing results. The Egencia ticket office had tried to book me VJML meal instead of VLML meal. VJML is apparently Vegetarian Jain Meal. I didn't know this existed. Apparently it does, and Air Mauritius has the information. Googling around results following information:




What the system has now for me is: undef (ALLP.list.SpecialMeal.VJML)
That sounds great! It seems there were three other definations for meal as well.. I wonder what will be the result.  Bottomline is, it seems, vegan with special indian seasoning.

It has instructions on how to get vegetarian meal on plane. Done that but it does not always help and is consuming process. Also, air lines listed based on what they serve. But they don't consider Lufthansa's short haul flights servings.... No veggie food available there.

I may still have to contact TAP portugal and probably Finnair, too.

To be updated later...
