Cheapflights.com Celebrates Oktoberbest in the Sky

BOSTON, MA--(Marketwired - Sep 16, 2015) - It's beer season! Around the world, millions will pour a pint (or more) in celebration of Oktoberfest in the coming weeks. And those taking to the air shouldn't be left out of the fun. So the travel experts at Cheapflights.com, the online leader in finding and publishing travel deals, have crafted their own menu of airlines with particularly tasty brews for travelers with Oktoberfest in the sky: Top 8 beer-loving airlines around the world. Let our list be your guide to flying with flavor.

Here are four of our picks for brewtastic airlines that put a focus on local favorites:

• Air New Zealand - Air New Zealand has an award-winning meal and beverage service, and we think that might have to do with its long list of craft brews on board. Kick back and fly with some of the finest beverages available.
  Inflight Offerings:
   Macs's Craft Beers, a macro brewery from New Zealand that brings big flavors. Try the smooth and refreshing Gold All Malt Lager. 
   Stella Artois, filled with yeast and Saaz hops that make for a crisp finish every time.

• Frontier Airlines - This Colorado-based airline made it a priority to include a Denver beer on its menu. This move makes sense considering how much great beer comes from the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. Frontier has been flying with craft brew for more than 10 years now with no signs of stopping.
  Inflight Offerings:
  Oskar Blues Brewery's Dale's Pale Ale, one for hop lovers made with the mountain springs of Colorado.

• easyJet - An English airline serving traditionally English beer is exactly what you'll get from easyJet. This low-cost airline lets you travel cheaply, but drink like royalty.
  Inflight Offerings:
  Old Speckled Hen, a traditional English pale ale known for drinkability.

• Hawaiian Airline - Everything about Hawaiian Airlines, from the flight attendants outfits to the pineapple snacks, looks and feels authentically Hawaiian. Fittingly, they've also brought one of the largest local breweries to the sky. As they say in Hawaii, Hipahipa (Cheers)!
  Inflight Offerings:
  Maui Brewing Company's Biking Blonde Lager, a light 100% malt beer that'll make you feel like you're on a beach.
