Finally, Something Worth Unfolding Your Tray Table For

Most inflight food in economy feels like a minor penalty. Alaska Airlines is aiming to fix that—or at least make sitting in coach considerably more palatable. Starting this September, the carrier is overhauling its domestic Main Cabin menu with regional flavors that go way beyond a tiny bag of stale pretzels.

Two Northwest Favorites Hit the Cabin

To pull it off, the airline partnered with two popular regional staples: Ellenos and Evergreens. Passengers can expect thick artisan yogurt from Ellenos, famous for its rich texture and bold local ingredients, alongside fresh salads from Evergreens. It's a smart play by the carrier, leaning into its Pacific Northwest roots while giving flyers food they'd actually choose to eat at 35,000 feet.

Economy Dining That Doesn't Feel Like an Afterthought

Rolling out across domestic routes this month, the lineup bridges the gap between ground-level fast-casual spots and inflight catering. You won't need to shell out for first class to land a decent bite anymore. Whether you want a crisp salad from Evergreens or a sweet, creamy treat from Ellenos, the option is there—just be sure to check availability on your specific route before you board.
