Starting June 1, Main Cabin customers on select flights within the U.S., Canada, Caribbean and Mexico will be able to enjoy additional refreshed onboard menu items. Customers can purchase the new turkey and Havarti sandwich, served on artisan avocado bread with baby spinach, sweet red pepper strips and a caramelized onion-mustard spread, for $14 or 1,400 miles. Served with Community Honey BBQ chips and a sweet treat, the sandwich provides a convenient lunch or dinner option while in flight.

Convenient ways to pay

American makes it easy to enjoy new onboard food offerings with tap-to-pay technology and the option to redeem AAdvantage® miles for inflight food and beverages. Not an AAdvantage® member? Joining is easy and free. AAdvantage® members also have access to free, high-speed Wi-Fi, sponsored by AT&T, on more aircraft than any other airline in the world.
