United Expands Drinks and Snacks Service

United Expands Drinks and Snacks Service

Starting June 1, United customers on most flights over two hours will be able to purchase beer, wine and the widely popular White Claw Hard Seltzer. Then, on June 15, United will introduce a revamped menu of for-purchase snacks and brand-new premium cabin meal options on most flights over 1,500 miles and hub-to-hub flights over 800 miles or more than two hours.

Customers will be able to purchase drinks and snack items onboard from the Buy-On-Board menu using United’s new mobile wallet technology. United’s contactless payment system allows customers to store their payment information in a digital wallet on the United app and on United.com prior to departure. Rather than handing the flight attendant a credit card, the flight attendant will ask for the customer’s name and seat to confirm the card on file.

New Adult Beverage Menu

United’s revamped adult beverage menu features a number of options sourced locally from United’s hubs, along with customer favorites from iconic brands. The new menu includes:

  • White Claw® Mango
  • Breckenridge Brewery Juice Drop Hazy IPA
  • Kona Brewing Co. Big Wave Golden Ale
  • Michelob ULTRA®
  • Stella Artois®
  • Red, white and sparkling wine options
