Delta Air Lines offers a range of benefits to its full-time employees, including profit-sharing, an attractive retirement savings plan, training and professional development opportunities, competitive life insurance, comprehensive medical insurance, paid leave benefits, and free and discounted flights. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Delta shared at least $1 billion in profit with employees annually, but this was put on hold due to substantial losses. However, the future looks promising for it to recover and resume profit sharing at some point. The retirement savings plan includes a 401(k) with automatic contributions and a 100% match for the first 6% contributed by the employee. Training programs are available for pilots, flight attendants, customer service agents, supervisors, and managers. Life insurance coverage is provided for employees and their dependents, with options for basic and optional coverage. Various healthcare insurance options are available, and employees are entitled to paid leave benefits, including vacation, sick, bereavement, family responsibility, and parental leave. Free and discounted flights are offered to employees and their family members, as well as gym memberships at Delta Air Lines Corporate Fitness centers.
