United Airlines has partnered with Westin Hotels & Resorts to bring hotel-branded bedding and amenities to the sky for the first time on a U.S. airline. This comes one month after unveiling Westin Renewal Lounges inside Red Carpet Clubs in New York (JFK), Los Angeles and San Francisco.

"When traveling across the country, our first and business class customers expect to feel relaxed and rewarded when they are at the airport and on the airplane," says Graham Atkinson, United Airlines' executive vice president and Chief Customer Officer.

On board, those customers will enjoy custom-designed onboard amenities that include Heavenly Bed blankets and pillows, Super Foods cocktails and Westin video and music selections. A new cocktail will be unveiled each season, and all will be served on a brain-teaser coaster, giving United customers a chance to practice the Westin brand's expert-developed, whole-body approach to wellness.

"We are delighted to bring the Westin Heavenly experience to travelers in-flight and on the ground in United Red Carpet Clubs," said Sue Brush, Senior Vice President of Westin Hotels & Resorts.

Inside United's Red Carpet Clubs, Westin Renewal Lounges give travelers a soothing hideaway. Each Renewal Lounge is outfitted with plush furniture, fabrics and the brand's nature-inspired color palette, and features a signature LED candle wall and artwork typical of the Westin soothing aesthetic.
