Sun PhuQuoc Airways continuously researches and adjusts its menu to bring variety to passengers. According to the airline's culinary development strategy, the menu is renewed every 2 months, totaling 6 cycles per year.

Menus are refreshed 6 cycles/year to cater to passenger preferences in different markets
1.6. Every market has its own “dining rhythm”
For international routes, SPA focuses on the habits and culinary culture of each market.
Korean and Chinese passengers tend to dine early after the aircraft reaches cruising altitude. Specifically, on Korea-bound flights, meals are structured with a familiar format including a main course, kimchi, and side dishes (banchan).
Russian passengers are served fuller, energy-rich portions with bold flavors and characteristic richness.
Japanese passengers tend to spend the beginning of the flight resting and prefer a lighter meal closer to arrival.
1.7. Meals tested to suit in-flight conditions
A dish that tastes great on the ground may not retain the same flavor at an altitude of 10,000 meters. Therefore, SPA’s In-Flight (IF) team must consider many factors such as humidity, color, seasoning, temperature, and flavor retention after reheating.
Each recipe is tested and adjusted multiple times so that the food reaching the passenger maintains quality and taste suitable for in-flight service conditions.
Meals served at 10,000m ensure flavor and quality
1.8. Finding the “signature touch” in every dish
To Sun PhuQuoc Airways, a dish needs not only to be delicious but also to have identity and fit the journey. That is why the IF team continuously tests, tastes, and adjusts every ingredient before introducing a dish to the menu.

With Vietnamese dishes, the airline aims to maintain the characteristics of Vietnamese cuisine. With international dishes, the recipes and presentation are researched to correctly reflect the culinary spirit of each market.
For example, when developing the Korean menu, SPA worked with culinary expert Woo Jung Kim, who has operated many restaurants in Seoul, to adjust every detail from kimchi, vegetables, and rolled omelets to Bulgogi and various banchan.
Menus for each market are meticulously cared for and adjusted by SPA in every detail
1.9. Beverages with a touch of Vietnamese culture
Besides food, beverages are also developed by SPA as part of the dining experience, especially in Business Class.
One notable creation is the Pho Cocktail, inspired by the flavors of Vietnamese Pho such as cinnamon, star anise, and coriander seeds. The drink is crafted from Good Gin and Triple Sec Cam Sanh, offering a new way to enjoy familiar ingredients.

Another highlight is the Old Fashioned made with whisky distilled from H'Mong corn, bringing the flavors of the Northwest highlands into the in-flight beverage experience.
