Delta Air Lines has unveiled the new cabin interiors that will feature on its Airbus A350 in early 2025 that will fly between the U.S. and Australia.
The designs will initially debut on Delta’s narrowbody Boeing 757 aircraft that will begin flying on domestic and short haul international routes.
From fresh seating materials, enhanced lighting and a renewed colour palette, to new decorative motifs and signature branding, every aspect of the cabin interior has been carefully planned and thoughtfully redesigned to elevate the travel experience.
“Delta has a 100-year history of creating a customer experience that feels welcoming and thoughtful with intentional design elements woven into every aspect of a customer’s travel,” said Mauricio Parise, Vice President – Customer Experience Design.
“As we embark on our next century of flying, this refreshed cabin interior infuses utility with beauty to create an atmosphere that feels fresh, elevated and timeless while reflecting our customers’ evolving tastes and expectations.”
The nose-to-tail transformation of the interiors was based on extensive feedback and research to create a cabin experience that reflects customers’ changing expectations and lifestyles.
Customers travelling in Delta Comfort+ or Main Cabin will enjoy seats made from engineered leather with updated colours and signature stitching and accent stripes. On a widebody aircraft, these same passengers will have new memory foam cushions to enhance comfort.
“Every flight is different, so we’ve focused on creating warm, calming and atmospheric lighting options that create an environment for customers to rest and relax, or stay productive as they wish,” added Parise.
“For boarding, we’ve focused on the ‘moment of deceleration’ – warm and inviting lighting that makes the cabin appear spacious and open.
“At mealtimes, we queue hues that feel like you’re at a candlelit dinner – making meals more natural and inviting.
“As the lights dim for sleep, we borrow from the sunset and slowly remove blue light while bringing in warm amber tones which are reminiscent of a sunset glow. When it’s time to wake up, the cabin slowly brightens into morning and daylight.”
