In its bid to meet strong demand for travel during the busy winter and holiday period, Delta Air Lines is upgrading its services on the Lagos-Atlanta route by offering customers more comfort, an improved onboard experience across all cabins, and increased cargo capacity.
Through late November, the airline will deploy a mix of A350-900 and A330-900neo aircraft on the route and from early December, all flights between Lagos and Atlanta will be operated exclusively with the A350-900, Delta’s leading long-haul international aircraft.
“Deploying our A350 and A330-900neo on the Lagos–Atlanta route for the winter season enables Delta to meet growing customer demand while delivering a premium experience our travellers will love,” said Mary Gbobaniyi, Manager, Sales, West Africa. “The added seat capacity and cargo capability are essential during this period when families reconnect and trade activity intensifies between Nigeria and the United States,” she added.
Both the A350-900 and A330-900neo represent Delta’s latest generation of widebody aircraft, featuring the airline’s premium interiors and signature four-cabin experience, Delta One® Suites, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort, and Delta Main. Each cabin is designed to deliver a superior onboard experience with enhanced privacy, space, and personalized service.
Delta One® customers will enjoy lie-flat seats, chef-curated meals paired with Taittinger champagne and exclusive Missoni-designed amenities. Delta Premium Select provides wider seats with deeper recline and enhanced amenities for a more spacious and relaxing journey, while Delta Comfort offers extra legroom, earlier boarding and dedicated overhead bin space.
Across all products, travelers benefit from curated dining and Delta Studio entertainment, which features more than 1,000 hours of free seatback entertainment including a wide variety of movies, series, curated playlists, podcasts, and an extensive selection of games. Also, SkyMiles Members can enjoy fast, free Delta Sync Wi-Fi powered by T-Mobile.
The Airbus A350-900 is one of Delta’s next generation aircraft for long-haul operations and one of the most technologically advanced aircraft in the sky. It offers increased seating capacity, ambient lighting, and quieter cabins designed to reduce fatigue and enhance comfort on long-haul journeys combined with improved fuel efficiency, and expanded cargo capacity, supporting both passenger and freight needs during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.
