Delta Air Lines Adds More Luxury Lounges for Premium Flyers

Delta Air Lines Opens New Lounges

According to a Delta Air Lines spokesperson, the new lounges are part of an effort to provide high-end services to its most valued customers. These lounges will feature exclusive amenities, including a sit-down brasserie and a spa offering facial and massage treatments.

As per Travel and Leisure, the development follows the opening of the inaugural Delta One lounge at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York. Delta Air Lines is also planning to add similar facilities at Boston-Logan International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport by the end of 2024.

These lounges are designed to cater exclusively to long-haul business and first-class customers, select ticket holders on Delta partner flights, and Delta 360 members flying domestic first class.

The luxury lounges set Delta Air Lines apart from its Sky Clubs, which are already well-known among travelers. These additions are part of Delta's commitment to serving luxury travelers and come as the airline prepares to restrict Sky Club access starting February 2025.

Credit card holders will soon be limited to a capped number of visits yearly.

In addition to the lounges at major hubs, Delta Air Lines plans to expand its lounge offerings at non-hub airports. Miami International Airport is scheduled to see an expansion of its Sky Club space soon, and a new 15,000-square-foot lounge at Charlotte Douglas International Airport will open by year's end.

As Delta Air Lines continues to invest in premium services, it maintains a competitive edge in the airline industry, promising more comfortable and luxurious travel options for its passengers.

Winning Streak with Top Industry Awards

Delta Air Lines has secured top honors at the Skytrax World Airline Awards, winning Best Airline in North America and Best Airline Staff for the third and fourth consecutive years. The awards, based on the largest global traveler survey and hosted annually in the U.K., reflect Delta's ongoing commitment to superior service, as mentioned in CEOWorld Magazine.

Ralph Albus, Delta's Director of Global Communications for EMEAI, expressed pride in the awards, attributing them to the positive feedback from the airline's 200 million customers annually. He emphasized that such recognition highlights Delta's consistent quality of service.

Skytrax CEO Edward Plaisted also acknowledged Delta's consistent performance, especially praising the airline's staff for their exceptional service, which continues to set them apart in North America.

In addition to the Skytrax accolades, 2024 has been a remarkable year for Delta. The airline has garnered several prestigious awards, including the Air Transport World Best Airline 2024 and The Points Guy's 'Best U.S. Airline.'

Delta has also been recognized as the best airline for business travelers by BTN for 13 years running and is celebrated in Fortune's '100 Best Companies to Work For.'

Moreover, it led to the J.D. Power 2024 North America Airline Satisfaction Study for upper-class travelers.
