According to the airline’s website, Alaska Airlines is still not serving food or drinks on flights under 220 miles — a policy the airline put in place due to the coronavirus pandemic last year. The airline is just serving bottled water on flights between 220 miles and 350 miles.
Last yr, Alaska Airlines stopped serving meals and drinks on short flights to limit interactions during the coronavirus pandemic, Fox News reported at the time. Packaged snacks and bottled water were handed out on longer flights.
