Additionally beginning May 1, Delta’s EATS menu will feature XXX and Power C flavors of vitaminwater® from Glacéau in 20-ounce bottles for $3 each. For ease of payment, Delta customers now can use credit cards for the purchase of any food, beverage, and headsets where offered onboard.

“Offering Delta’s customers a menu of quality food through our EATS program is one way we’re showing them we value their busy schedules,” said Joanne Smith, Delta’s senior vice president of In-Flight Service and Global Product. “We know customers frequently have little time to eat when traveling, and we are pleased to offer them many tempting choices when they fly with us.”

New beach destinations in the Caribbean and Latin America to offer EATS selections include: Antigua; Barbados; Bonnaire; Liberia, Costa Rica; Cancun, Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; Montego Bay, Jamaica; Punta Cana, Dominican Republic; St. Thomas; St. Martin; St. Lucia; and San Juan, Puerto Rico (from New York - JFK).

Delta launched its food for purchase menu in September 2007 on coast-to-coast mainline flights between New York John F. Kennedy International Airport and Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and Seattle. Today, the EATS menu is available on almost every Delta flight within the 48 contiguous United States of at least one and a half hours. Customers continue to receive complimentary snacks on all flights of more than 250 miles on Delta and Delta Connection carrier flights.
