Delta Air Lines announced it has named T-Mobile as its preferred mobility partner, uniting America's most awarded airline with America's most awarded 5G network. Over the span of this long-term agreement, Delta will move more than 60,000 lines to T-Mobile and deploy a T-Mobile 5G hybrid network at their Atlanta headquarters to strengthen operational efficiency and enhance customer service. Delta is consistently recognized for excellence in everything from customer experience to operational performance.

It's all because Delta continually pushes the limits to enhance the travel experience for its millions of customers. By leveraging the nation's largest, fastest 5G network, Delta aims to improve operations across nearly every part of the journey -- from check-in and boarding to departure, arrival, baggage handling and beyond. Once implemented, pilots will experience improved connectivity to existing digital tools and resources globally, such as electronic flight bags containing weather information and dispatch services.

Delta Sky Club ambassadors will gain advantages from 5G connectivity and communications with above-wing staff for better service delivery and customer satisfaction. Additionally, a dedicated 5G hybrid network from T-Mobile's 5G Advanced Network Solutions will boost Ultra Capacity 5G performance for corporate employees at Delta's headquarters in Atlanta. This will offer comprehensive 5G coverage indoors and outdoors to support fast and reliable connectivity vital for operations across the entire Delta campus, including hangars and technical operations.
