US Airways Wants Everybody In The Club To Get Tipsy

October 28, 2009 at 3:29 PM | by kjb | 0 Comments

Frequent flyers of US Airways will soon be smiling a little more as they prepare to board their flights. The airline has finally caught up with other carriers and has added free booze to the menu at the US Airways Club. However, a membership to the airline club will still set passengers back at least $325 to join, and can cost $450 if they don’t have any status with the airline. The free alcohol will begin to flow in the clubs starting on October 30.

Additionally, passengers will be able to use the clubs of partner airlines as well. This includes Continental Airlines’ Presidents Club as the airline finally joined the Star Alliance this week. Domestic travelers can also swing into United’s Red Carpet Clubs for a little rest and relaxation.

It seems that US Airways has finally gotten the memo and has begun to match amenities that other airlines have always offered—like returning complimentary soft drinks up in the sky. Our only concern with the free drinks in their club is that they specify the beverages are from a house selection of beer and wine. We’re thinking that means Bud Light and Franzia. We'll probably have to go elsewhere to get Single Malt Scotch.
