Nothing captures the warm, cozy feel of the holidays like a thick sweater. The Navy Delta Holiday Sweater features reindeer, snowflakes, and a cool Delta insignia.

Ornaments add whimsical fun to the season, and the Festive Delta Plane Ornament is a nice addition to any display. Featuring a stylized glass airplane with a tree on top, it’s something we can all warm up to.

The Delta Aviation Teddy Bear sports a leather flight jacket and goggles, looking ready for an adventure in the skies. It’s a fun gift for travelers, young or old.

Delta Sync Wi-Fi lets more travelers experience in-flight technology, with 165,000+ seatback screens across 850 aircraft — the most of any domestic airline. Besides wide-ranging entertainment options, Delta Sync users can look forward to more offers as the holidays unfold.
