The FINANCIAL — Delta Air Lines has introduced a new line of healthy menu items from Luvo now available in the economy cabin on Delta's transcontinental flights between New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, according to Delta Air Lines.
The Luvo meals – all made with natural ingredients, no added trans-fats, and hormone and antibiotic-free proteins – are complimentary for customers seated in Economy Comfort and available for purchase for customers seated in Economy.
"Our customers love Luvo's fresh snacks on our west coast Delta Shuttle flights, so it makes sense to make these healthy, delicious meals available on our coast-to-coast flights," said Joanne Smith, Delta's senior vice president – In-flight Service.
Additionally, customers in BusinessElite on transcontinental flights will continue to enjoy the Delta WineMaker Series with new selections for 2014. Since its launch in 2012, the series has featured high profile and sought-after California wines curated by Master Sommlier Andrea Robinson. The first two selections for 2014 are a 2012 Sauvignon Blanc from Matanzas Creek Winery in Sonoma County and a 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon from Arrowood in Sonoma County. Customers in BusinessElite will continue to enjoy multi-course meals developed by Napa Valley-based Chef Michael Chiarello, according to Delta Air Lines.
Transcontinental service between JFK and Los Angeles increases to eight daily frequencies beginning in April and this July, Delta will debut three updated Boeing 757 aircraft on the route. These will be the first 757 aircraft in service to feature Delta's previously announced upgrades which will include full flat-bed seats in BusinessElite on transcon flights between New York-JFK and Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle. All transcon flights on these routes will feature flat-bed seats by summer 2015.
Customers will continue to enjoy Delta's investments on the ground as well. Delta's new Terminal 4 at New York-JFK International Airport features the largest Delta Sky Club in the system with a chef-designed menu and wine list as well as the award winning Sky Deck. Late last year, Delta debuted a brighter, more open lobby at Los Angeles International Airport, the first phase of a $229 million investment to overhaul Terminal 5. The new lobby complements recent upgrades to the LAX Delta Sky Club as well as new dining and retail options throughout the concourse, according to Delta Air Lines.
