Delta Expands Delta One Check-In Spaces Across All Its U.S. Hubs

Delta Air Lines has taken another step in its premium experience strategy with the expansion of Delta One Check-In, an exclusive space designed for check-in, baggage drop, and pre-flight relaxation. This initiative is now available at all U.S. hubs offering Delta One service, just in time for the holiday travel season.

From the very first moment at the airport, the airline aims for passengers to experience an environment marked by calm, personalized attention, and comfort. This offering complements the Delta One product in the air, extending that elevated standard from terminal access through security screening.

A Premium Experience from Airport Arrival

The new Delta One Check-In spaces combine thoughtful design and attentive service, with the goal of providing a more fluid departure process. Each area is designed for customers to begin their journey with peace of mind, avoiding crowds and optimizing time.

Greg Forbes, Delta’s Managing Director of Airport Experience, explained that this concept marks the beginning of the elevated journey from the moment the passenger arrives at the terminal. According to Forbes, the approach relies on service efficiency and consistency, integrated into a welcoming environment that reflects the care and hospitality characteristic of the company.

Airports Where Delta One Check-In Is Now Available

The dedicated Delta One Check-In areas are now operating at the following U.S. airports:

• Atlanta (ATL)

• Boston (BOS)

• Detroit (DTW)

• Los Angeles (LAX)

• Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP)
