Model Answer

The flight attendant asked the passenger if he had had his dinner. The passenger replied in affirmation and thanked him.

Explanation

In reported speech, a yes/no question uses "if/whether," tense shifts from simple past ("did you have") to past perfect ("had had"), and "your" changes to "his." The blank requires only the reported question clause.
