We are going to travel to Australia next month. DH is Diabetic. I
ordered a "low-carb" meal for him.

Unfortunately, airlines think a "diabetic" meal is a regular
carbohydrate-laden meal with an artificially sweetened dessert. *Don't*
order the Diabetic meal if you want to eat during the 12 hour flight.
