Delta Air Lines presented its strategic priorities and long-term financial commitments at an Investor Day event in New York. CEO Ed Bastian emphasized the company's strong industry leadership as it approaches its centennial, driven by a workforce of 100,000 people worldwide. "Our consistent strategy, investment, and execution over the past 15 years continue to elevate and unlock the value of our trusted brand," Bastian stated.

The presentation highlighted several themes, including Delta's efforts to enhance the travel experience and drive customer loyalty, which are expected to support revenue growth and margin expansion.
