D2C In-Flight Wines

Flagship Cellars is Mailing Wines from American Airlines to Subscribers

— January 22, 2021 — Lifestyle
Flagship Cellars subscribers now have the chance to taste wines from American Airlines' collection of award-winning in-flight wines without having to book a flight. The at-home wine experience gives travel and wine lovers alike the ability to enjoy premium wines that are carefully reviewed by a team of experts. Members have the choice of shopping collections like the Flagship Select Mixed wine set or the First Class Reds & Whites collection, among others.

The travel industry is being challenged to adapt in response to increased restrictions and safety precautions and some airlines are giving consumers the chance to enjoy in-flight meals on the ground with pre-packaged products and experiences. Now, American Airlines is setting itself apart as the first US airline to offer its selection of onboard wines to people at home.
