ATLANTA, March 10, 2008 – Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) today begins new daily nonstop service between New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport.

Delta’s new nonstop service between New York-JFK and Tel Aviv will be operated using 767-300ER aircraft with up to 215 comfortable all-leather seats in a two-cabin configuration. Customers flying Delta’s award-winning BusinessElite enjoy Delta on Demand featuring first-run and popular classic movies, music, TV programming and video games – all available on demand; a five-course menu including glatt kosher selections on flights to and from Israel; a reinvented wine program launched in February by Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson featuring wines from around the world; new full-size pillows, duvets; modern and stylish dinnerware; and in-seat power outlets (110 Volt) that allow customers to recharge their laptops without the need for an adaptor.
