Despite a wave of viral headlines claiming otherwise, Virgin Atlantic has confirmed it is not offering THC-infused sodas on its flights. The buzz began after media outlets misinterpreted a press release from the cannabis beverage company Cann, which announced a new promotional partnership with the airline—but without any actual THC onboard.
Cann is known for making low-dose cannabis drinks that contain THC and CBD, often marketed as social alternatives to alcohol. But due to international drug laws and airline regulations, these infused versions aren’t legal to serve in-flight, especially on international routes.
Virgin Atlantic clarified that while it is collaborating with Cann for a limited-run promotion, the drinks served on their flights are non-infused versions. That means no THC, no CBD—just the same sparkling flavors without the cannabis kick.
The misunderstanding highlights how quickly cannabis-related news can go viral, especially when tied to big brands or airlines. It also shows how much public interest there is in THC and hemp-based products entering the mainstream.
As cannabis legalization continues to evolve, more brands are finding creative ways to market hemp, marijuana, and CBD in new forms—from beverages and gummies to cannabis apparel and THC-themed accessories. But regulation still plays a major role in what’s possible, especially in industries like aviation.
