Attention, passengers: After hearing from PETA and receiving nearly 150,000 e-mails from our dedicated supporters, American Airlines—the world’s largest airline by daily flights—just announced that it will launch a vegan creamer option on its in-flight beverage menu in November!

Because vegan options are kind to cows, healthier for humans, and better for the planet, the number of people ditching dairy is soaring. PETA applauds American Airlines for getting on board with oat milk creamer and urges Southwest Airlines to do the same.

American Airlines will be the fifth major U.S. airline to begin offering vegan creamer in less than two years.

PETA awarded Delta Air Lines and Alaska Airlines for being the first to widely offer oat milk options last year, and United Airlines and JetBlue added oat milk creamer this year.

Cows make friends, hold grudges, and mourn their loved ones when they pass away or are separated from each other.

Mother cows form intense bonds with their babies and often call and search frantically for them after they’ve been taken away. The demand for dairy-free milks has skyrocketed as consumers learn that cows used for dairy are forcibly inseminated and their beloved calves are torn away from them so that the milk meant to nourish their babies can be used by humans. Once their bodies wear out after repeated pregnancies, they’re sent to slaughter.

It’s Easy to Show Compassion to Cows

Each person who goes vegan saves nearly 200 animals a year, dramatically shrinks their carbon footprint, and reduces their risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and other illnesses. PETA’s free vegan starter kit can help anyone thinking of making the switch.
