American Airlines brings back free snacks in coach
American Airlines Group has followed United Airlines in providing free snacks for economy passengers after more than a decade without them. American began offering Biscoff cookies on flights departing before 9:45 am Monday on routes between NY JFK and Los Angeles and San Francisco, and between Miami and Los Angeles. Flights later in the day will carry the cookies or pretzels. The snacks will return to the coach cabin of all flights April 4. The resumption comes after American reported a record US$6.3b profit for 2015, helped by a plunge in the cost of jet fuel. With fares already low because of increased competition from discount airlines, American is improving service to attract fliers. American stopped serving free snacks in 2003, while merger partner US Airways removed them in 2008. <br/>
