West Coast-based Evergreens is a made-to-order salads company that is headquartered in Seattle. They have created the gluten-free Brusselin’ Vegan Salad. Enjoy a bed of Tuscan kale and crisp romaine lettuce, topped with roasted shaven Brussels sprouts, red quinoa, fresh red peppers, golden raisins, capers and roasted almond slices, served with an agave and apple cider dressing. This is my kind of inflight meal. Healthy and can’t get any fresher.

A tasty sandwich with a fun name – the West Coast Muffuletta is Alaska Airlines’ take on the popular New Orleans classic. Sink your teeth into thinly sliced cured ham, prosciutto and Soppressata on a sesame-crusted ciabatta roll with mozzarella cheese, fresh arugula, and an avocado and olive pesto.

We take a lot of pride creating new seasonal food options that taste great and that are good for you,” said Todd Traynor-Corey, managing director of guest products at Alaska Airlines. “Many of our guests tell us they love the bright, West Coast flavours that use real, healthy ingredients. For our fall menu, we continue to focus on plant-based, vegan and gluten-free options.”

Aviation Gin from Portland, Oregon joins the spirit selections inflight. Aviation American Gin has been around since 2006 and is backed by Ryan Reynolds who is also co-owner. The smooth, balanced gin is the foundation for the airline’s new onboard cocktail, Wheels Up, a refreshing grapefruit gin fizz. True Grapefruit is used for this cocktail, joining True Lemon and True Lime on board.
