Delta Air Lines said it will discontinue complimentary snacks and beverages on flights shorter than 350 miles starting May 19, affecting a small share of its daily operations.
The airline said the move will apply to roughly 9% of its flights, including some connections. Routes such as New York to Boston fall within the cutoff.
Delta added that flight crews will remain attentive and available even on flights without onboard service.
Under the updated policy, travelers on flights of 350 miles or more will continue to receive snacks and drinks. The carrier also said it plans to broaden full beverage service to hundreds of flights that previously had more limited offerings.
Premium cabin passengers will continue to receive full service regardless of distance.
