Fan-favorite soft drink returns on July 1 as the airline introduces new snacks and additional benefits for T-Mobile and American Express customers

Delta Air Lines is enhancing its onboard experience for the summer travel season with the return of one of its most requested beverages. Starting July 1, Fresca will once again be available on Delta flights, accompanied by an updated complimentary snack selection and new customer benefits through partnerships with T-Mobile and American Express.

The reintroduction of the citrus-flavored soft drink follows strong customer demand and reflects Delta's ongoing focus on responding to passenger preferences while refreshing its onboard food and beverage offering.

New snack lineup adds more choice

Alongside the return of Fresca, Delta is updating its complimentary snack selection. Rold Gold Tiny Twists Original Pretzels will replace SunChips Garden Salsa Whole Grain Snacks, giving travelers another familiar savory option during their flight.

The pretzels join Delta's existing snack assortment, which also includes Cheez-It Original Baked Snack Crackers, Lotus Biscoff Cookies and the gluten-free MadeGood Chocolate Chip Organic Chewy Granola Bar introduced earlier this year.

New onboard benefits for T-Mobile customers

Delta is also expanding its partnership with T-Mobile by offering eligible customers one complimentary premium beverage on most flights where premium drinks are available for purchase.

Passengers can activate the benefit by linking their SkyMiles membership with the T-Life app before departure. Once connected to Delta Sync Wi-Fi during the flight, the complimentary drink offer will automatically appear and can be redeemed during beverage service.

Complimentary premium snacks for eligible cardholders

Delta SkyMiles American Express Card Members can also take advantage of a new onboard promotion. Through October 31, 2026, eligible cardholders receive one complimentary premium snack on select flights longer than 900 miles.

Available options include Pringles Grab & Go Original Crisps, Dot's Original Seasoned Pretzels and NERDS Gummy Clusters, subject to availability. The offer can be redeemed through the Delta Sync Wi-Fi portal during the flight.

With the return of a customer favorite, an expanded snack selection and new loyalty benefits, Delta continues to enhance the onboard experience ahead of one of the busiest travel periods of the year.
