Delta Air Lines is making significant upgrades to enhance the travel experience for passengers flying between Nigeria and the United States. Starting July 1, customers departing from Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos will have access to a newly renovated premium lounge. This facility aims to provide a more comfortable ground experience with contemporary design, high-speed Wi-Fi, private relaxation areas, and premium refreshments.
Matteo Curcio, Delta's Senior Vice President for Europe, Middle East, Africa, and India, stated: "With the launch of our new premium lounge in Lagos and the introduction of our most advanced aircraft on our routes, we are reaffirming Delta’s commitment to Nigerian travelers. This is an investment in infrastructure, and we strive to deliver an exceptional travel experience from West Africa to the world.”
In addition to the new lounge, Delta will introduce its latest aircraft on routes between Lagos and the U.S., starting this October. The Airbus A350-900 will be deployed on the Lagos–Atlanta route beginning in October. Between December 2 and January 16, the Airbus A330-900neo will operate on the Lagos–New York route during peak holiday travel times.
