On a subset of its flights, United is implementing a novel refreshment station. Bottled water and traditional refreshments will be available for free at the 'Grab-N-Go' station.
Priority will be given for the provision of complimentary refreshments over the course of the day.
An airliner from Houston to Chicago tested the novel feature last week. After the main cabin has been served, refreshments will become available.
There appears to be no longer-than-usual delay for a flight attendant to deliver a snack or inquire whether you require a beverage, in contrast to the current service.
The variety of refreshments served will be contingent upon the duration of the flight, according to a United spokesperson.
Only United's fleet of brand-new A321neo aircraft will feature the refreshment station. Throughout its introductory phases, the service will be exclusive to flights covering a distance of 801 miles or more.
United is implementing a number of modifications,including the addition of the refreshment station.
The airline experimented with a novel boarding system earlier this year in which passengers stand in line. Passengers who have purchased tickets for window seats are admitted before those who have purchased aisle seats.
Furthermore, by 2025, the airline intends to upgrade the multimedia systems on a portfolio of aircraft. Scott Kirby, the CEO of United Airlines, has been emphasizing the benefits of his company.
