Why NOT free tortillas at the airport?
Texas-based supermarket chain H-E-B sprang into action with a clever campaign in response to a viral TikTok from an airport security line with the caption “all these people and no one knows I have 200 HEB tortillas in my backpack.”
The folks at H-E-B sent a crew to San Antonio International Airport (SAT) last week with a see-through suitcase stuffed with packages of fresh tortillas and other treats for passengers.
The company’s Instagram post on last Friday’s pop-up tortilla give-away event shows a tortilla-filled suitcase being rolled through the airport and going through the TSA x-ray machine.
Then a team from the supermarket chain hands out what was reported to be 5000 tortillas as well as branded blankets to passengers and crewmembers heading off to cities that don’t have H-E-B tortillas.
We will give this the nod as (last week’s) Airport Amenity of the Week.
