The INSIDER Summary:

United Airlines is upgrading its economy class menu with deep-dish pizza and burgers, which will be available starting in July.

The pizza will come from Chicago's Uno Pizzeria & Grill.

The new menu options are only available on international flights.



Let's face it: Airplane food still has a poor reputation. But are the days of plastic-wrapped, unidentifiable entrees over?

United Airlines thinks so. The airline is upgrading its inflight meal options with new deep-dish pizza and burgers, and you don't even have to be in first class to take advantage of them.

Starting this July, you can order spinach and garlic deep-dish pizza served in a skillet from Chicago's iconic Uno Pizzeria & Grill for $9.99, as well as freshly grilled burgers. United Airlines told Forbes that they're even planning on offering a pizza and beer combo for $13.99, paired with a Miller Light beer.

The catch is that unfortunately you can only order pizzas and burgers on flights leaving North America (not including Canada), but hopefully domestic flights will catch up soon. You can already get a $12 cheeseburger and fries aboard a United Airlines flight from their buy-on-board snack menu. The burgers, unsurprisingly, are very popular: More than 2,000 are served daily, according to Travel Skills.
