The WNBA has seen a surge in interest and high ratings this season.
Delta Airlines has become the Official Airline Partner of the WNBA, building on their existing charter program relationship. Delta now carries all 12 teams of the league during the regular season and playoffs as part of a multi-year agreement.
This partnership highlights Delta’s focus on women’s athletics, with opportunities for travel-related storytelling through WNBA media channels. The airline will also promote WNBA players’ off-the-court travel stories on digital and social platforms.
WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert commented on the partnership:
Delta Air Lines shares the league’s commitment to excellence and innovation, uplifting and empowering women’s sports. This partnership enhances the travel experience for players and demonstrates Delta and the WNBA’s joint effort to boost women’s sports visibility. With Delta’s support, we look forward to taking the WNBA to new heights and engaging meaningfully with fans.
