History

Looking for something memorable to do in Atlanta this summer? Step out of the heat and into a one-of-a-kind, immersive experience at the Delta Flight Museum — where aviation history, storytelling and hands-on exploration come together for all ages.

Authored by New York–based journalist Mark Ellwood and organized decade by decade, Delta: 100 Years & Climbing brings Delta’s history to life through striking photography and personal stories.

Tickets are now on sale for Hops in the Hangar, Delta Flight Museum's annual fundraising event that celebrates the best craft brews from Georgia and across the country.

The true origin of the Delta name doesn’t lie solely in the Greek letter – it’s the brainchild of a woman named Catherine FitzGerald, who suggested the name to Delta’s founder as a way to pay homage to the agricultural region that was foundational to the airline’s success.
