United Airlines passenger service pilot at Newark

Overview

United Airlines has launched a pilot program at Newark Liberty International Airport to streamline the passenger experience. Operating at nine designated gates within Terminal C, the service allows eligible travelers to use the United app to order food, beverages, and travel essentials—such as charging cords, pillows, and over-the-counter medications—for pickup near their gate.

To manage the preparation and delivery of these orders, United is collaborating with participating restaurants and the airport hospitality company OTG. The airport was chosen for this test due to its role as a major connecting hub where passengers frequently manage tight flight windows.
