On April 9, Delta Sky Club raised the curtain on its newly expanded Miami lounge. With the addition of nearly 4,000 square feet and 100-plus seats to the Club—a capacity increase of more than 50%— the Club now stands at just over 12,000 total square feet, ready to welcome around 300 guests.
“Miami is an important global transport hub, with increasing prominence in the Delta network,” said Claude Roussel, Vice President – Sky Clubs and Lounge Experience. “The expansion and renovation of the MIA Club helps us support the growth in this market and elevates the lounge experience to one suited to the profile of this vibrant city.”
The expansion’s design takes inspiration from Miami’s bright colors and sunny beaches. A new mosaic pays homage to the city’s classic Art Deco architecture, while the overall color palette reflects the nearby turquoise waters, blue sky, and white and gold accents seen in south Florida designs.
The Club expansion features a new service buffet and additional beverage station to support that higher guest volume. Seating in the expansion is tailored to the needs of the business traveler, with single-seat dining tables, a communal table with a charging source in the center, and power outlets at almost every seat. Throughout the Club, seating has been refurbished to match the elevated look of the newly added space.
Guests of the renovated lounge can enjoy a view to the H Concourse below from the expansion space.
The Miami expansion kicks off a year of growth for Delta lounges, with two new Delta Sky Clubs coming to Charlotte and Seattle and three highly anticipated Delta One Lounges opening in JFK, LAX and BOS. See the full list of openings here.
DELTA IN MIAMI
KEEPING MIAMI CONNECTED
This summer, Delta will offer 34 peak-day flights from Miami to 12 destinations, including international service to Havana, Cuba. All service will be operated on Delta mainline equipment, with premium cabin classes available across flights.
With the addition of daily service to SEA coming this December, Delta’s domestic routes from Miami will include all nine of Delta’s domestic U.S. hubs (ATL, BOS, LGA, JFK, MSP, DTW, LAX, SLC and SEA), along with Raleigh, Orlando and Washington D.C.
EMBEDDED IN THE COMMUNITY
Delta is deeply rooted in the Miami and South Florida community, serving as a corporate sponsor to youth organizations such as the YMCA of South Florida, KIPP Miami, Junior Achievement chapters of Greater Miami and South Florida, and Covenant House Florida. Additional partnerships with Clean Miami Beach, Miami Beach Pride and Feeding South Florida support environmental, cultural arts/LGBTQ+ rights, and wellbeing initiatives within the region. Delta also serves as the Official Airline of the Miami Marlins. Last year, Delta made its debut at Miami art week, showcasing the work of six Miami-based artists through immersive art projections in a chartered flight to the event and commissioning pieces from the artists for a Delta-sponsored open-air gallery.
Earlier this year, Delta, along with joint venture partner LATAM Airlines Group and Junior Achievement, partnered with New World School of the Arts to give 25 students a real-world introduction to the aviation industry. Delta and LATAM volunteers gave students a behind-the-scenes look at the workings and operations of Miami International Airport, laying the groundwork for future careers in aviation.
Florida is home to more than 7,500 Delta employees. This year, profit sharing payouts to state-based employees totaled $31.5 million.
