Delta offers Premium Select on Hawaii flights

by James Wilkinson

Delta is upping the ante on flights to Hawaii this winter, offering Delta Premium Select seats for the first time to the South Pacific state.

Three daily nonstop routes to Hawaii – Atlanta to Maui, New York-JFK to Honolulu and Salt Lake City to Maui – will offer the cabin onboard Airbus A330-900neo, Airbus 330-300 and Boeing 767-400ER aircraft.

“We continue to see unparalleled demand for our premium products, so we’re giving our customers access to nearly 330,000 premium seats to Hawaii this winter,” said Delta’s Senior Vice President of Network Planning, Joe Esposito.

“Hawaii is a highly sought-after destination for families and adventurists alike, and we’re offering them more choice and comfort than ever before.”

Delta will be the only airline to offer direct daily flights to Maui from Atlanta when the brand-new route launches November 19, while on December 17, the airline will introduce new daily nonstop service from New York-JFK to Honolulu as well as returned daily frequency from Salt Lake City to Maui.

In Delta Premium Select, Delta customers have more space to relax and stretch out, with a wider seat, deeper recline and an adjustable footrest and leg rest.

They’ll also receive an upgraded amenity kit, noise-cancelling headsets, a blanket made from recycled materials and memory-foam pillow to help them arrive rested and refreshed.

In the months ahead, Delta said it will continue to evolve the Delta Premium Select experience, with onboard enhancements designed with customers’ well-being in mind and personalized experiences that go beyond the seat.

According to the carrier, customers can look forward to an elevated dining experience, premium service touchpoints and new one-of-a-kind amenity kits featuring thoughtfully curated travel essentials.

“Whether customers want to unwind, sleep, work or catch up on the latest in-flight entertainment on Delta Studio, they can plan on arriving at their final destination refreshed and re-energised,” the carrier said.

In addition to the domestic U.S. launch of Delta Premium Select, the product is currently flying on most transatlantic and transpacific flights, according to the carrier which said it aims to continue to roll out the product across additional fleet types and destinations in the years ahead.

All customers on these Hawaii flights will have access to WiFi onboard and Delta’s best-in-class seatback entertainment, while powering up their own devices with in-seat power and USB ports.

Customers will also enjoy refreshed premium food and beverage options from small businesses, suppliers from across the globe, and woman- and LGBTQ+-led brands, according to the carrier.
