Hi everyone,

Today we’re announcing that we will re-introduce complimentary snacks to United Economy. Beginning in February 2016, customers on thousands of North America and Latin flights will begin receiving these snacks.

Based on departure time, the complimentary snack may vary. Those flying on flights departing before 9:45 a.m. will receive a morning stroopwafel – a Dutch caramel-filled waffle to pair with coffee, tea, or to enjoy on its own. Flights departing after 9:45 a.m. will offer packaged savory snacks, such as an Asian-style snack mix of rice crackers, sesame sticks and wasabi peas or a zesty-ranch mix of mini pretzel sticks, Cajun corn sticks and ranch soy nuts.

We understand the small details matter, and the return of free snacks is among a number of upgrades we’re making to improve your travel experience. For more, see our story on United Airtime.

Thanks,
