Its soooooo exciting. Canned wine and undrinkable vodka! Keep climbing!
What about bottled wine isn't sustainable? Aren't glass bottles just as recyclable as cans?

Perhaps the most interesting part of that press release is the change in economy snacks. Rold Gold pretzels, almonds, Biscoff or Kate's Real Food dark chocolate cherry bar. Would appear Clif bars and Goldfish are out.

Inedible First Class Meal LAX-HNL
Described as chicken salad. Looks like Delta has run out of the box tops. Embarrassing.

as opposed to glassware or hard plastic dishware that's all washable, totally reusable, and can be sourced from recycled materials.
But who needs niceties and actual desirable service when we can be woke?
Maybe in international main cabin, the flight attendants can use a bamboo ladle to just scoop food directly into customers mouths. That'll really empty the landfills.

Out of these, which one would be most kid friendly? Delta doesn't do kid special meals unfortunately...

This is fantastic news! However, it's looking like the rollout will likely be as haphazard as last summer's box meal disaster. I'm flying a 1,500+ mile route towards the end of March so I'm crossing my fingers these enhancements are loaded on my flight.
MSP-SFO - SFO has had D1 catering in place since last year, so I'm hopeful this is an easy route for Delta to enhance Domestic FC.

I hope the old full drink offerings come back soon. Still no Bailey’s in domestic F and the new “Orange Juice” they use looks like it was designed for a elementary school cafeteria with how small the container is.

Delta promising hot meals returning to flights over 900 miles for those in First in March - official press release: https://news.delta.com/hot-meals-and...t-delta-flight
Also sounds like Delta is offering organic snack bars from Kate's Real Foods to those in economy too - dark chocolate almond cherry sounds nice, and I think they're also gluten free. Those snack bars are pretty pricey ($30 for a 12 pack) at retail!
