Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky Airport Vegan Guide (2024)

Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Airport Vegan

If you’re walking through the Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky International Airport in Covington, Kentucky and you’re trying to figure out what is available vegan (and where you can find it) then you are in the right place! And if you’re not even at the airport yet and you’re here planning ahead then bonus points for you.

We’ve taken the time to scour through the Cincinnati (CVG) Airport’s Dining Guide to find everything vegan-friendly in the airport and where everything is located.

We are also very fortunate that we have our VeggL community that often reaches out to us to let us knowOpens in a new tab. about vegan options that they find in airports as well.

So, let’s get right to it – here is your Vegan Guide to the Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky International Airport.
