The new offering will also delight pizza lovers with pizza offered by the slice. Pizza toppings include crowd favourites such as Pepperoni, and more gourmet flavours including Mortadella and Pistachio, and Mediterranean Veggies with Ricotta.

Gusto will also a showcase a range of pastries including sfogliatelle, bomboloni (Italian donuts) and classic cannoli – along with specialty coffee for that pre-flight pick-me-up.
