United to Start Charging for Food on Some International Flights
United will start charging for meals on flights leaving Dulles International for Europe starting October 1. If there is any good news in that announcement, it's that a $39 meal doesn't seem to be on the menu.
United is also doing away with its free snacks on domestic flights, which we're not really too sad about. (Do people actually like those airline pretzels?) Instead, "Buy on Board" offerings will be expanded, and prices will go up from $5 and $7 to $6 and $9, depending on the particular snack pack.
The carrier will still provide free meals on flights to Asia. But might we suggest a website update? As of now, United still lists complimentary meal service as an international amenity.
