What You Need to Know

  • United has launched a dedicated Peacock inflight entertainment channel, giving travelers access to select Peacock Originals.
  • The partnership adds episodes from popular series like The Traitors and Poker Face to United’s already substantial IFE library.
  • New Peacock Originals are due to be added regularly, with the next set to include The Copenhagen Test and Ponies.

While United already offers a substantial IFE experience, including 450 movies, over 1,000 TV episodes, and more than 140 hours of podcast content, there are always ways to improve the selection of content.

In United’s case, the latest improvement comes in the form of a new Peacock channel that shows episodes from popular Peacock Originals.

Now available across more than 160,000 seatback screens, as well as through the United mobile app on personal devices, fliers will be able to tune in to the new channel and stream Peacock content without a subscription.

“Entertainment plays a central role in the onboard customer experience, and we’re continuing to expand both the quality and variety of what’s available,” said Dominic Green, Director of Inflight Entertainment at United Airlines.

At launch, the library of Peacock content includes select episodes of popular shows like The Traitors (season 4), All Her Fault, The Paper and Poker Face.

United has also confirmed that new Peacock originals will be added to the channel’s catalog on a regular basis. As an example, episodes of The Copenhagen Test and Ponies are due to become available in June.

“With these popular series from Peacock, we’re introducing a standout lineup of widely recognized series to our seatback screens and personal device entertainment, further strengthening our premium inflight entertainment offering and giving customers more engaging ways to spend their time in the air,” added Green.

United is not the first airline to strike up a partnership like this with Peacock. Back in late 2022, JetBlue partnered with Peacock to make it possible for travelers to access Peacock content during flights.
