Delta Air Lines (Delta) will introduce Amazon Leo across hundreds of its aircraft, beginning with an initial rollout on 500 planes from 2028, while working with Amazon to expand its popular Delta Sync Wi-Fi and seatback experiences—enhancing personalisation and onboard connectivity for customers.
The agreement builds on the existing collaboration between Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Delta, bringing more advanced technology to Delta’s people, customers and operations.
Delta will leverage Amazon Leo’s cutting-edge satellite technology to enable faster, more personalised digital experiences across its domestic and international flights. These include streaming films and television, listening to podcasts and audiobooks, and staying connected with friends, family and colleagues. Amazon Leo’s superior upload capacity will allow customers to share moments instantly—from posting holiday photos and videos in real time to securely sending presentations or business files after important meetings—without needing to wait until landing.
The airline plans to begin installing Amazon Leo on 500 aircraft from 2028, significantly enhancing its Wi-Fi offering through Amazon’s advanced low Earth orbit satellite network.
“Delta’s future is global,” said Ed Bastian, Delta’s Chief Executive Officer. “This agreement gives us the fastest and most cost-effective technology available to better connect the world today, and it deepens our work with a global leader that shares our ambition to build what’s next, creating even stronger human connections for our people and our customers for years to come.”
Building on their existing collaboration, Delta and Amazon intend to integrate AWS, Amazon Leo and other Amazon technologies—including AI—to enhance the customer experience across the entire travel journey.
