Premium leisure travel accelerates in 2022

As international travel returns, Delta customers on nearly every flight to Europe will enjoy upgraded experiences on the airline’s refreshed Airbus A330** and Boeing 767-300 fleets, which now offer a consistent onboard experience with a choice of four experiences – Delta One or Delta One Suites, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin. Both fleet types have also received additional upgrades like refreshed lavatories and new LED cabin lighting.

Delta Premium Select, the airline’s premium economy cabin, includes more space to relax and stretch out with a wider seat, deeper recline and an adjustable footrest and leg rest.
