Delta is bringing the premium lounge experience to West Coast customers with the opening of the Delta One Lounge at LAX.

Adjacent to the Delta Sky Club at Terminal 3, Delta’s second Delta One Lounge – with seating for nearly 200 guests – is directly connected to the Delta One check-in for a completely private, high-touch ground experience.

“From JFK to LAX, the opening of this lounge allows us to offer our customers a premium experience from coast to coast,” said Claude Roussel, Vice President – Delta Sky Clubs and Lounge Experience. “With a menu designed for our most discerning guests and the dedicated, individualized hospitality curated exclusively for our Delta One Lounges, our teams continue to raise the bar on service and elevate what an airport lounge can be.”

Inspired by both the natural and manmade beauty of Los Angeles, the lounge colour palette evokes the landscape of Southern California. Sunset hues, complemented by leather and walnut accents, colour the Icon Bar. The airiness of the coast is reflected in the Verde Emerald quartzite and onyx back bar.

Feature lighting throughout the lounge, like the dramatic wall lighting in the library lounge and dining room, nod to the glamour of old Hollywood. Crafted details – such as fluted walnut panelling and oculus inspired ceilings – reflect LA’s renowned architectural history, from Modernism to Art Deco.
The landscaped terrace, featuring seating for 26, includes accent pillows furnished by Delta One luxury brand partner Missoni. Vases, pillows and coffee table books in the library lounge area also bear the signature mark of the iconic Italian fashion house.
Delta’s signature hospitality plays the starring role in the LAX lounge. Guests can enjoy service-led dining from every seat—and with a regularly rotated menu featuring elevated dishes like crispy duck tacos, pan-roasted salmon and roasted corn pizza, returning guests can look forward to discovering new favourites.

Also, a year-round sushi bar – an LAX exclusive – is available for guests who prefer their meal on a roll.  All food and drink in the lounge is designed for attendant service – which means you can sit back, relax, and let the dining experience come to you.

Relax and find your retreat within a retreat in the LAX Delta One Lounge wellness room, featuring eight private relaxation pods equipped with zero-gravity chairs and full-body massage chairs.   Specialty lamp lighting in the wellness area mimics the light colours affecting the body’s circadian rhythms, helping your body get acclimated to the time zone to which you will be flying.

A regularly refreshed menu of wellness-themed drinks is available to nourish and revive you for your journey, as is a rolling wellness cart featuring spa water, refreshing towels and product samples from Grown Alchemist.
