The official launch of the beverage on board is July 1. However. travelers flying between New York / Newark (EWR) to Los Angeles (LAX) or San Francisco (SFO) will be able to enjoy a preview of the brew on red-eye flights between now and July 3.  “We know fliers enjoy a pick-me-up during travel, and illy’s canned cold brew is the perfect beverage option for coffee lovers looking to stay energized and focused during their trip," United's Managing Director of Hospitality Programs Aaron McMillan shared in a statement to T+L.  United also shares that cold brew will be available on flights longer than 300 miles, which is a majority of their mainline routes.
