United Airlines Adds Illy Ready-to-Drink Cold Brew and Oat Creamer to In-Flight Menu

United Airlines has announced the addition of illy's canned cold brew and oat creamer to its in-flight menu, with the cold brew being available on most flights over 300 miles. This move makes United the first major US airline to serve premium cold brew coffee on most of its flights. Crafted with illy's unique blend of 100% Arabica beans and cold brewed for 12 hours, the cold brew promises a rich and balanced flavor. The drink will be complimentary in United's premium cabins and available for purchase in United Economy as part of the buy-onboard menu.

To celebrate the new offering, illy and United have teamed up to provide free premium cold brew to travelers on select redeye flights between San Francisco and Los Angeles to New York/Newark. The partnership between the two companies aims to meet the rising demand for cold brew, as ready-to-drink coffee consumption has seen a significant increase, particularly among Millennials and Gen Z. This collaboration demonstrates United's dedication to providing premium customer experiences and illy's commitment to delivering high-quality coffee options for travelers.
