From thoughtfully curated menu options to dedicated service touchpoints, customers flying Delta are enjoying an atmosphere at mealtime that feels like a restaurant at cruising altitude.  

This fall, Delta is enhancing its onboard service and offering a variety of premium onboard beer, wine and spirit choices, including tequila and a seasonal beer option; a new oat milk creamer; a new Delta One course; regionally inspired meal options; Atlanta’s very own Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q’s beef short rib; refreshed snack and beverage options; and more. 

“We want every dining experience on a Delta flight to feel exciting for our first-time flyers, our million milers and every customer in between,” said Kristen Manion Taylor, S.V.P of In-Flight Service at Delta. “Our customers and the diverse communities we serve are the heart of everything we do at Delta, especially as we continue to develop inclusive menus and bring new partners and products on board.”

Enhanced Delta One Service, Pre-Select Expansion and Exciting Seasonal Menus

Delta is also enhancing its premium in-flight dining experience by adding new service touchpoints in Delta One cabin, expanding our popular pre-select program and refreshing menus for customers flying in Delta One and First Class. 

Enhanced Delta One service 

Starting Sept. 12, Delta One customers will enjoy a new, plated appetizer course to complement their entrée. While settling in and sipping on their beverage of choice, customers can enjoy menu items like dill-cured salmon with pickled vegetables or Mexican shrimp cocktail. 

Regardless of where one is departing to or arriving from, Delta One customers will enjoy an elevated and consistent experience. Starting Sept. 12, all Delta One coast-to-coast and flights to Hawaii will mirror the best-in-class service already available on international flights. This includes heated nuts (a customer favorite!), an expanded wine selection, a special appetizer, the option of dessert or a fruit and cheese plate and espresso service (on select aircraft) to round out the meal. 

Pre-select expansion 

Delta is expanding its popular pre-select program, which gives customers flying in our Delta One and most domestic First Class cabins the opportunity to select their main meal up to seven days prior to departure, offering a more seamless, personalized and elevated experience. Starting Sept. 12, customers in most domestic First Class flights over 900 miles can select from exclusive, regional or limited-selection meal options – only available through pre-select – in addition to the standard menu available on board. 

Exciting seasonal menus 

Delta is also rolling out refreshed menus in the Delta One and First Class cabins on domestic and international flights. Customers will experience more regional, more comforting, and more chef-designed dishes – options that are sure to excite even our most frequent fliers. As always, customer feedback informs everything we do; these new menus were designed by our in-house chefs and nutritionists and in collaboration with expert partners from across the world. Using historical data on meal preferences collected from thousands of flights, we’re able to track general trends and customer feedback to deliver an excellent dining experience that’s fresh, consistent and tailored to what customers are asking for.
