Delta to Honor 100 Distinguished Employees

Chairman’s Club represents Delta’s highest honor in employee recognition


Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) tonight will honor 100 of its top employees at its 2012 Chairman’s Club gala at the Fox Theater in Delta’s hometown of Atlanta. Induction into the Chairman’s Club is Delta’s top honor in employee recognition.

“Delta has incredible momentum heading into the New Year, and much of that can be attributed to the collaborative efforts of Delta’s dedicated and high-performing employees,” said Richard Anderson, Delta’s chief executive officer. “Our 2012 Chairman’s Club honorees are a perfect example of how Delta employees live the values of this great enterprise as they serve our customers each day.”

Honorees are nominated by their colleagues and selected based on their embodiment of Delta’s values and principles, their distinguished contributions to the company, their dedication to their community and their exceptional service to Delta’s customers. Honorees live and work in communities across the globe, including Frankfurt, Germany, Bangkok and Delta’s hub at Narita International Airport in Tokyo.

Honorees will enjoy a red carpet entrance across Peachtree Street to the Fox Theater, with hundreds of their colleagues lined up in support.

The Chairman’s Club, now in its 16th year, is part of Delta’s commitment to recognize top performers, build a better airline and continue to build a great place to work for its more than 80,000 employees worldwide.
