Read at source

Delta Air Lines is expanding its premium Delta One offer with new menus, tableware and suite upgrades, while increasing its Porsche car fleet from 40 to 70 to meet higher demand.

01Summary

  1. 01Delta said it will raise its fleet of Porsche vehicles from 40 to 70 because demand from high-value flyers has outstripped supply.
  2. 02New crockery, Missoni mini pillows and updated food and drink menus will roll out on Delta One flights, with some items appearing from Los Angeles later this month.
  3. 03The new menu includes Champagne served over sorbet and Blanton's bourbon.
  4. 04Delta plans to introduce updated suites with a bigger screen and a more cushioned, lighter lie-flat seat when its first Airbus A350-1000 aircraft begin flying early next year.

02Why it matters

The changes show how Delta is competing for high-paying passengers and where it is choosing to spend on service upgrades. That can matter to investors because premium cabins are an important source of airline revenue and margins.
