Shakes on a plane: Delta to serve Shake Shack cheeseburgers on flights leaving Boston

Gabriella Rudy is a news associate for NBC News.

Delta Air Lines will begin shaking up its menu by serving Shake Shack cheeseburgers on flights departing from Boston this December, part of a new partnership with the New York-based burger chain. But not every Delta passenger will be afforded airborne burgers. Only first-class fliers on routes over 900 miles will be able to pre-select a Shake Shack cheeseburger as their meal option starting Dec. 1, Delta Airlines said Tuesday in a press release.

'A delicious cheeseburger is an iconic comfort food — our customers know that, which is why burgers are one of the top ordered menu items we offer, and we’re thrilled to elevate the offering with Shake Shack,' said Stephanie Laster, Delta's Managing Director of Onboard Service. Passengers will be served a Caesar salad, chips and a dark chocolate brownie in addition to their cheeseburger, the release stated.
