Alaska Airlines is rolling out new, seasonally inspired main cabin food and beverage menus. The selections are based on research and feedback from passengers. The menus include plenty of local ingredients and suppliers.
“We believe in offering our guests locally-inspired food options made with fresh and healthy ingredients,” said Sangita Woerner, vice president of marketing, Alaska Airlines. “By drawing inspiration from the Pacific Northwest and California, we’re building a consistent experience for guests across our fleet that brings to life our West Coast vibe.”
Menu items can be pre-ordered with the Alaska Airlines mobile app, so guests can ensure their choices are available on flight. The summer menu will be available through Nov. 15, with the following West Coast-influenced choices:
Breakfast (served on flights more than three hours, departing 6–10 a.m.)
—Fresh Start Protein Platter includes Greek yogurt, almonds, seasonal fruit, Beecher’s Flagship Cheese, a cage-free hard-boiled egg, pita and non-GMO turkey.
—Croissant Sandwich includes Applewood smoked bacon, cage-free hard-boiled eggs, greens and avocado mayo.
Lunch and Dinner (served on flights more than three hours, departing 10 a.m.–8 p.m.)
—Turkey Artichoke Baguette features tasty turkey on a baguette with artichoke spread and avocado mayo.
—Charge Up Protein Platter includes hummus, pita, Beecher’s Flagship Cheese, all-natural grilled chicken, walnuts, a cage-free hard-boiled egg and seasonal fruit.

All Day (served on Boeing/Airbus flights more than two hours and Embraer flights more than three hours departing 6 a.m.–8 p.m.)
—Signature Fruit and Cheese Platter, a guest favorite, is being upgraded with an additional cracker, optimizing the cheese-to-cracker ratio, a top request of travelers. It features two wedges of hand-cut Beecher’s Flagship Cheese, crafted in the heart of Seattle’s Pike Place Market, along with two wedges of classic Tillamook sharp cheddar, and a slice of creamy Brie, perfectly paired with five crisp Partners crackers, apples, grapes and a decadent Seattle Chocolate truffle.
Craft Beers and Wine
Guests sip the best from up-and-coming West Coast breweries and, beginning in the fall, a reimagined winemaker program will introduce guests to unique selections that regularly rotate. The seatback menu card will now feature IBUs (International Bitterness Units) with an explanation to help guests decide which beer to choose.
Craft beer offerings for the summer menu include:
—Ballast Point Sculpin IPA (San Diego) – 70 IBU
—Lagunitas 12th of Never Ale (Petaluma, California) – 45 IBU
