Hungry Delta passengers will soon be able to order a Shake Shack burger as their mid-flight meal. But only if they are first class.
Delta announced the partnership with Shake Shack on Tuesday, saying the first-of-its-kind collaboration will begin Dec. 1 on flights out of Boston. The offer will expand to other US routes during 2025.
“A delicious cheeseburger is a popular comfort food – our customers know that’s why burgers are one of the top-ordered menu items we offer, and we’re thrilled to elevate the offering with Shake Shack,” Stephanie Laster, managing director of Onboard Services, said in a press release announcing the partnership.
“However, our partnership with Shake Shack goes beyond burgers. Shake Shack’s people-first culture and commitment to enriching their neighborhoods is aligned with our own brand values and supporting the communities we serve. are
Burger-hungry First Class customers can select it as their in-flight meal using the Delta app before travel. The amendment option starts seven days before departure and meals can be changed up to 24 hours before departure.
The Shake Shack meal will also come with chips, Caesar salad and a dark chocolate brownie.
At Shake Shack, we’re always looking for new and innovative ways to meet our guests, even at 35,000 feet,” said Michael Cork, president of global licensing at Shake Shack, in a press release. Taking our beloved cheeseburger to new heights, Shake Shack is proud to partner with Delta as we elevate the in-flight dining and hospitality experience for travelers nationwide.”
The announcement marks a series of recent changes by Delta to enhance customers’ in-flight experiences. Last month, Delta revealed plans to redesign the cabin interior, including updated seats, bathrooms, and new lighting.
