U.S. airline Delta Air Lines, Inc. recently partnered with Italian luxury fashion brand Missoni. Through this partnership, Delta will offer new Missoni amenity kits and a new lounge featuring Maison’s designs, providing an even higher quality of air travel for passengers in the top-tier Delta One class.
The premium Missoni amenity kit will be available mid-July in Delta One (Business Class) on Delta Air Lines flights to and from Italy and Paris. From September, the amenity kits will also be available on all international and U.S. domestic long-haul routes.
The amenity kit features Missoni’s signature zigzag pattern on the exterior and a custom pattern on the inside inspired by the view from an airplane window. The kit includes Grown Alchemist skin care products, a bamboo toothbrush and toothpaste, an eye mask, ear plugs, socks, and a pen. Starting in October, the amenity kit will also include Marvis toothpaste. In addition, Delta One passengers will receive a bedding kit that includes a comforter, pillow, and slippers.
Alberto Caliri, Creative Director of Missoni, commented in a statement: “The Missoni amenity kits have been meticulously designed, embodying a timeless declaration of elegance and a profound connection with the surrounding world. Additionally, customizing the Delta One Lounge at JFK signifies an important new frontier for our lifestyle approach. We are delighted to partner with Delta on the Delta One experience.”
Mauricio Parise, Vice President – Brand Experience Design also said, “The Missoni-designed amenity kits, along with unique design elements that will be featured in our Delta One Lounge at JFK, will offer a distinct, high-end enhancement to our most premium spaces.”
New Delta One Lounge Opens at JFK Airport
On June 26, a new Delta One Lounge also opened at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. Located between Concourses A and B in Terminal 4, adjacent to the main security checkpoint.
The spacious new lounge, which spans 39,000-plus-square-foot, features the Missoni home collection, with the brand’s signature zigzag pattern on pillows, vases, and coffee table books. It is a truly sophisticated space where visitors can enjoy craftsmanship and high-end aesthetics.
The lounge includes a bar counter, restaurant, soundproof booths, shower rooms, relaxation pods, and the Serenity Lounge, where passengers can relax and enjoy a moment before boarding. There is also an indoor terrace with seasonal plants overlooking the airfield, and this lush green space not only stimulates the senses but also has a calming effect.
“Our teams have spared no detail to ensure Delta One Lounge guests receive a truly memorable experience,” said Claude Roussel, Vice President – Delta Sky Clubs and Lounge Experience. “It’s a new era for Delta – this Lounge is raising the bar across the board, from the amenities to the food and beverage offerings to the level of personalized service. We want our guests to feel the difference here; moreover, we want them to feel welcomed and valued from the moment they step through the door,” he continued.

Other exclusive experiences await travelers on Delta One, such as spacious full-flat seats, access to the Delta Sky Club, and SkyPriority service, to make air travel even more fulfilling. During the flight, passengers can enjoy a luxurious flight by relaxing in the comfort of Missoni amenities and bedding, while enjoying a wide selection of beverages and delicious, seasonally selected in-flight meals.
