Delta is elevating the travel experience for its West Coast customers with the highly anticipated opening of the Delta One Lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The new Delta One Lounge, located adjacent to the Delta Sky Club in Terminal 3, provides an exclusive, high-touch experience for premium travelers. With seating for nearly 200 guests, this space offers direct access from Delta One check-in, ensuring a completely private and luxurious ground experience. 

Drawing inspiration from both the natural and architectural beauty of Los Angeles, the Delta One Lounge at LAX boasts a sleek and sophisticated design. The architectural details, such as fluted walnut paneling and oculus-inspired ceilings, celebrate LA’s rich design history, from Modernism to Art Deco. The terrace, offering seating for 26, is adorned with luxury pillows by Delta One partner Missoni, adding an extra touch of elegance. 

Delta’s commitment to exceptional hospitality is evident throughout the dining experience at the LAX Delta One Lounge. Guests can enjoy service-led dining from any seat in the lounge, with a menu that changes regularly to feature dishes like crispy duck tacos, pan-roasted salmon, and roasted corn pizza. A sushi bar—exclusive to LAX—offers freshly rolled delights, while the rotating selection of location-themed Bento boxes takes travelers on a culinary journey through destinations such as Paris, Tokyo, and Boston. For those who prefer cocktails, the “Destination Libations” menu offers signature drinks inspired by international airport codes, such as a Mai Tai-inspired drink representing Tahiti (PPT) and a gin-forward mix that nods to London (LHR).

For travelers looking to unwind, the LAX Delta One Lounge features a wellness room equipped with eight private relaxation pods, zero-gravity chairs, and full-body massage chairs. Specialty lighting in this area mimics natural light to help travelers adjust to new time zones, while wellness-themed drinks and a wellness cart—offering spa water, refreshing towels, and product samples from Grown Alchemist—are available to enhance the relaxation experience.

With the grand opening of the Delta One Lounge, Delta has completed its Sky Way at LAX project, offering a world-class, seamless travel experience from curb to gate, and a new standard in luxury for its most premium travelers.
