Matching a move from some of its competitors, Delta Air Lines announced last month it will increase the prices of its alcoholic beverages as part of its in-flight drink service.
According to The San Francisco Chronicle, Delta is raising the price of domestic beer from $7 to $8, craft and imported beers from $8 to $9 and wine and cocktails from $8 to $9. The new prices match those from rival American Airlines, which increased the prices in October. Both airlines will continue offering free drinks to premium class passengers, which includes Main Cabin Extra (American) and Comfort (Delta) customers.
By comparison, Southwest’s prices remain low, with domestic beer selling for $6, premium beers and wine for $7 and cocktails for $8.
Alaska Airlines sells most of its drinks for $7.50, with some premium wines costing $8.50 a glass. On JetBlue flights, most drink prices start at $7 but go up to $9 for some high-end wines.
United Airlines has the most expensive drinks prices among American carriers, selling an Old Fashioned cocktail and a Trader Vic’s Mai Tai on certain flights for $9.99.
