Southwest Airlines has begun serving Stellar Snacks’ Maui Monk Pretzel Braids as its new inflight salty snack since June 2024. This launch is Southwest’s latest enhancement to the inflight experience, including faster WiFi, onboard power ports, and larger bins.
“Elevating our Legendary Hospitality is always something we strive toward at Southwest,” said Bill Tierney, vice president of customer experience & digital experience at Southwest Airlines. “We’re enhancing our inflight snack offering with the addition of Stellar Pretzels, which offer Customers a little bit of everything—sweet, salty, and crunchy—from an up-and-coming company that bakes its snacks with love. We think it’s the perfect fit for the airline with Heart and hope Customers enjoy this exciting new flavor next time they fly Southwest.”
“Our best-selling Maui Monk Pretzels are high-quality, vegan, and non-GMO snacks made in the U.S.,” said Elisabeth Galvin, founder, of Stellar Snacks. “In addition to our gourmet flavors, we take the snack experience further through our artist program, which transforms our snack packaging into a canvas for emerging artists. Each bag of Maui Monk Pretzels features a selection of the vibrant artwork of Caro Clarke, turning each snack into an engaging, artistic experience for every traveler as they enjoy their pretzels.”
Southwest now serves Stellar pretzels on flights over 175 miles. The airline has introduced the exciting flavor of Stellar’s buttery pretzel combined with the sweet and savory taste of Maui onion seasoning and a hint of monk fruit sweetness
