American Airlines is adding new in-flight upgrades to food and entertainment this month. 

The airline now offers a Tostitos Snack Box that includes tortilla chips and salsa, which passengers on select flights over 1,300 miles can enjoy for $9 or 900 AAdvantage miles. 

Beverage lovers can also enjoy the introduction of LaCroix Limoncello, which replaces LaCroix Lime sparkling water that the airline previously offered. Those flying on inbound flights from London and Paris can enjoy an afternoon tea service, including finger sandwiches, scones and tea. 

Entertainment is also seeing some new upgrades. 

All U.S. inbound Flagship service flights, Hawaii Flagship service flights and transcontinental Flagship service flights are offering uninterrupted inflight entertainment, with First and Business class travelers able to leave their Bang & Olufsen headsets at their seats during deplaning. 

QVC+ and HSN+ are also available on American’s entertainment lineup.

Last month, the airline announced that AAdvantage members will soon be able to enjoy free high-speed Wi-Fi through AT&T on American Airlines flights, beginning next year.
