Delta doubles down on premium travel

The insight: Delta Air Lines expects demand for premium travel to drive growth in 2025 and beyond as high-income consumers—particularly millennials—splurge on luxury experiences.

The airline forecast revenue growth in the mid-single-digits for 2025, roughly in line with analyst expectations for 6% growth.

The trend: Delta’s focus on the front of the plane is hardly surprising given that demand for leisure travel is highest among affluent customers.
