Jimmy Buffett may have already crooned about cheeseburgers in paradise, but now Delta Air Lines is making travelers swoon over Shake Shack being served in the skies.
After a successful launch out of Boston late last year, serving more than 10,000 burgers in the sky, Shake Shack and Delta Air Lines announced Tuesday they are expanding the first-of-its-kind in-flight partnership from four additional cities.
Shake Shack adds burgers to more Delta flights
Starting Tuesday, burgers will be available in First Class on flights over 900 miles departing from Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York-LaGuardia, and Seattle.
Passengers seated in First Class will have the opportunity to pre-select the iconic Shake Shack Cheeseburger served with the fixings -- tomato, lettuce, and ShackSauce -- along with chips, a Caesar salad, and a dark chocolate brownie.
In tandem with the launch on the ground and Uber joining the SkyMiles program this spring, Uber Eats will offer SkyMiles Members a special burger drop promotion from March 4 through March 14. Members who have already joined the partnership waitlist or sign up by March 6 will get a "buy one Shackburger, get one free" offer pre-loaded to their Uber Eats account.
"This is part of our work to partner with brands our customers already know and love while continuing to raise the bar for the in-flight experience," Stephanie Laster, Managing Director of Onboard Service for Delta said in a statement.
