Delta Air Lines upgrades charter fleet from Boeing 757s to Airbus A321neos

"Initially, in September 2024, the NBA planned to lease 13 Airbus A321neos," says an official statement about plans for replacing older models with newer ones from SMBC Aviation. These updated jets will be retrofitted by Comlux Completions under Delta's operating certificate.

The Boeing 757 has been a staple narrowbody airliner since its introduction in the early '80s but now faces replacement due to age-related concerns despite being one of Delta's most significant fleets today alongside United Airlines' large operation numbers too.

As this change unfolds late last year after regulatory approval was granted; it marks another step forward toward sustainable aviation practices while ensuring reliable service continues uninterruptedly through enhanced cabin experiences aboard newly acquired planes designed specifically around needs expressed during lengthy schedules played out annually throughout various sporting
