Free Vegan Pumpkin Pie For US Travellers At London’s Heathrow Airport

Tourists from the US passing through London’s Heathrow Airport were surprised to receive a pumpkin pie for the Thanksgiving celebrations.

When travellers from US flights arrived in London and went to collect their baggage, they were presented with mini pumpkin pies — with gluten free and vegan options available.

“We wanted to surprise passengers traveling from the USA today with a special taste of home” said Ross Baker, Heathrow’s Chief Commercial Officer.

Heathrow Airport teamed up with Whole Foods Market to offer the seasonal treats.
