A Documentary 100 Years In The Making

A trip into the past. A look into the future.

From Academy Award®-nominee Joshua Seftel, “A Century of Flight” is about how Delta became the first U.S. airline to achieve 100 years of flight by relying on our values of always putting people first amid the many challenges that faced the airline industry.

The 45-minute documentary tells the personal stories of Delta people at every level of the company to give insights into our 100-year journey.
