United Airlines has been named the official title sponsor for the ninth season of Phil Rosenthal’s food and travel series Somebody Feed Phil. Announced in November 2026 the partnership coincides with the show’s move from Netflix to YouTube for its upcoming 2027 season. After eight seasons on Netflix the series is moving to YouTube in 2027 through a new pact with Banijay Entertainment with viewers able to watch new episodes for free.
Beyond serving as the title sponsor and providing travel support United Airlines will feature Season 9 on its seatback entertainment systems across its flights. The airline will be woven directly into select scenes of the upcoming season as Rosenthal travels to new global destinations.
To celebrate the launch United introduced the Somebody FIND Phil sweepstakes for its MileagePlus loyalty members. The giveaway offers fans the chance to win flights to destinations featured in the show and a meal in Los Angeles with Rosenthal.
