Season 09 Episode 01

Travel Gluten Free on International Flights

We kick off Season 09 of the Travel Gluten-free Podcast with an informational episode giving the gluten free traveler advice on how to navigate international air travel. While domestic air travel can be challenging, adding more hours and a foreign language or two gives us more hurdles to overcome when we are on our vacation. However, we can still navigate the international travel scene without getting sick when you know what to do and how to prepare for travel to Europe, Asia, Africa, Iceland, or South America.

Finding Gluten Free Eats at Airports

While some airports, such as Atlanta International have food guides to show you which restaurants could possibly accommodate a gluten-free eater, they may not be safe for someone who is Celiac because preparation of the food is essential for safe eating! However, you can use the Find Me Gluten Free app - even inside airports - to find safe food to eat. If you’re flying through Portland (PDX) you can definitely eat at the Burgerville restaurant, just make sure to tell them to tag your order with a gluten allergy.

Using Equal Eats Cards at International Airports

I absolutely love Equal Eats cards! They not only tell wait staff and chefs what you can and can’t eat in the foreign language of your choice, they also inform food preparation people about how your food needs to be handled. In addition, they are well-vetted and can be customized for food allergies, and sensitivities in addition to the details of Celiac disease, bringing an extra level of safety to traveling gluten free.
