Different snacks in C+?
What snacks have been served in Comfort+ lately? We have a 6 hour flight from CUN to SEA and I'm considering upgrading to C+ for $40 each. Besides the extra legroom, are there different snacks in C+ to make it worth it? I know I get free drinks. On our flight to CUN, we got goldfish crackers and a small Cliff bar twice (neither kid like Ciff bars). We have granola bars and our resort doesn't offer any packaged snacks other than boxed cereal. We will leave for the airport around 1pm and won't get into SEA until 8:30pm. I have Priority Pass but we are flying out of Terminal 3 so there aren't any lounges there. I really don't want grumpy, hangry teen boys sitting next to me for 6 hours so that's why I was wondering if there are better snacks in C+.

Usually Biscoff cookies and a small bag of salted nuts on domestic flights these days. Looks like there are a couple restaurants in the terminal, which would be a better idea.

I flew a morning flight in C+ from SEA to JFK last week (marketed as D1 with flat beds up front). FA came around at the beginning of the flight (prior to the service cart) and provided a selection of "premium" snacks in a basket. I selected a bag of chocolate chip cookie.

When is the flight? I think C+ may get a "snack basket" of sorts returning when meals in F return in the first half of July. I am sure someone has the exact date for that. My itinerary for a SEA-ATL on 7/16 shows "snacks, drinks and snacks" whereas main cabin shows just "snacks and drinks" leading me to believe C+ will get a little more. That being said, $40pp for some cheap snacks may not be the best value. If food is a concern, I would definitely bring your own or buy in airport and come out quite a bit ahead. If you put the emphasis on legroom, free booze, and earlier boarding, C+ would be more worth it.

It's in a few days. I saw the same for C+ and main so that's why I was asking. I thought maybe they'd have a better snack selection in C+. We'll probably just eat at the airport since my PP lounge is in a different terminal and stick with our seats in the back of main cabin.

For me, I'd pay the $40 in a heartbeat just for the extra legroom on a 6 hour flight. The complimentary booze would be a much welcome bonus. Guess we all have different priorities.

agreed definitely a good deal. They were asking $110 to upgrade ATL to DEN and that is a 3 hr flight. Besides C+ is getting booze now. I'd still buy a sandwich or something to bring on board. There is so many biscoff cookies or cliff bars that I can take in 6 hrs.

In C+ RDU-LAX, it was just these almond-based snacks. If you're literally deathly allergic to almonds like I am, you're SOL. The FA unapologetically said this was all they had for us. A much more sympathetic FA smuggled some Goldfish from FC for me. I guess Goldfish is FC-only now!
C+. Just almond-based items.
