Korean Air KE914 Madrid-Incheon: Special Meal Review 2026

스페인 여행을 마치고 돌아오는 길,

마드리드에서 인천 직항편

대한항공 KE914 이코노미를 타 봤어요!

또, 비행에서 가장 기대되는 건 기내식이죠.

그래서 이번에는 특별기내식 (해산물식)도

사전 신청해서 먹어봤는데요.

특별기내식 후기와 함께

KE914 기본 제공 물품까지 정리해 볼게요!

01. KE914 Basic Amenities and Seating

The in-flight items I received in Economy were a total of four:

in-flight slippers, earphones for in-flight entertainment,

a blanket, and one bottle of water.

Slippers, earphones, and a blanket are typically provided at each seat,

and once most passengers are seated,

flight attendants walk around distributing earphones.

Whenever I'm on a long-haul flight longer than 12 hours,

I always bring my own travel neck pillow.

But since there's also a small cushion provided at each seat,

think carefully about 'how to get the most comfortable sleep!'

Also, the KE914 seating had a 3-3-3 configuration.

For long-haul flights, I always choose an aisle seat,

so I picked an available aisle seat for this flight too.

Sitting for such a long time made my hips stiff,

so I often got up to stretch, and it was super convenient to go to the restroom.

You can use the restroom comfortably without worrying about bothering the person next to you!

However, if you're bothered by people walking past in the aisle

or want to get some deep sleep,

I'd recommend a window or middle seat instead!

02. Korean Air Special Meal Review

Hey everyone, are you familiar with Korean Air Special Meals?

Quite a few people aren't, but

you can pre-order a special meal if you have specific dietary needs.

However, you must request it at least 24 hours before your flight's departure,

and some special meals, like religious meals, might be fully booked early.

(You can request special meals in advance via the airline's website or

the Korean Air app's 'Manage My Booking' menu!)

Refer to the Korean Air special meal types below.

Other

Fruit Platter

A light meal centered around fresh fruits

Seafood Meal

A menu focused on fish and seafood

Religious Meals

Halal, Kosher, etc.

A diet tailored to religious requirements

This time, I wanted to experience a special in-flight meal, so I pre-ordered the seafood option.

In-flight meals were served a total of two times.

During the first meal service, everyone was patiently waiting for their food, but my special meal came out first, and everyone around me looked over.

It was a bit awkward for a moment, but I was happy to get my food quickly nonetheless, haha!

The first meal featured cod fillet as the main dish.

The cod fillet came with potatoes and zucchini, and a side salad and crackers were also provided.

The taste was mild and subtly seasoned.

Since it wasn't heavily seasoned, it felt a bit plain at first, but eating it with the accompanying crackers and salad...

The cod fillet was a little dry, but it was still okay.

For the second meal, a tuna omelet was served.

It had a savory and familiar taste, which made me feel oddly pleased, and I really enjoyed eating it.

However, it was a bit disappointing that the portion size was small. T_T

If you're someone who wants a filling meal,

I recommend sticking with the regular in-flight meal that comes with rice.

Nevertheless, it was much more delicious than the cod fillet meal served earlier, haha!

Personally, I think it's worth trying a special in-flight meal at least once.

For one, special in-flight meals are served before regular meals, and you can choose them based on your preferences,

So, especially if you need a vegetarian meal or a baby/child meal, definitely consider ordering one!

03. Finding the Cheapest Direct Flights to Madrid

If you're thinking about traveling to Spain at the end of the year,

start looking for flights now.

That's because fuel surcharges are continuously increasing, and direct flights to Madrid are limited, with Korean Air operating only about four times a week!

If you search for a round-trip ticket with a departure on December 15th and return on December 22nd,

Korean Air is the cheapest, at around ~$1051.

You can compare the lowest flight prices through the link below.

The interface is also intuitive,

making it great for comparing the lowest prices across different airlines!
