For one year, Boulud will design special dishes for Air France's La Premiere (first class) and Business cabins for long-haul flights from 11 North American cities, according to a release.

For the business cabin of Air France, four dishes will be rotated every two weeks. Notably, the dishes are "warm, spicy, and exotic, but retain their French character."
The dishes will include chickpea, sumac, salmon with fennel, Moroccan chicken tagine with lemon, conscous, cauliflower, braised chicken basquise with chorizo, saffron rice and peppers.
The business dishes will be served on flights which are departing from Atlanta, Boston, Houston, Washington, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Miami, San Francisco, Minneapolis, and Detroit.
"Customers are more interested than ever in enjoying the best quality food, whether in a restaurant or on-the-go, and that includes in-flight," said Daniel Boulud, when asked about his newest responsibilities.
He continued, "Air France has always maintained very high standards of culinary excellence on board, which I have enjoyed many times as a passenger between my home in the U.S. and my native France. I saw this as a wonderful opportunity to bring together our expertise and create a better in-flight experience for passengers. I hope Air France travelers will find my dishes to be soulful and delicious!"
