First Look: Delta One Lounge Los Angeles (LAX)
Delta Air Lines opens its Delta One Lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on October 10, 2024. Here’s a first look a the new lounge, including photos and key information.
Delta One Lounge LAX Photos
Let’s start with some photos…the lounge space is beautiful:
In terms of design and amenities, here is what you can expect:
Design
Seating for “nearly 200 guests”
Inspired by “the beauty of the Los Angeles landscape, both natural and manmade.” The color palette evokes the landscape of Southern California – sunset hues, complemented by leather and walnut accents, color the dining room, while the light airiness of the coast is reflected in the Verde Emerald quartzite and the glowing onyx back bar.
The glistening feature ceiling over the Iconic Bar pays homage to majesty of the Pacific.
Feature lighting throughout the lounge, like the dramatic wall lighting in the Dining Room, nods to the glamour of old Hollywood.
Crafted details – such as fluted walnut paneling and oculus inspired ceilings—reflect LA’s renowned architectural history, from Modernism to Art Deco.
Food & Beverage:
Service at every seat
A la carte selection for breakfast and all-day dining (appetizers and main courses)
Signature Bento boxes rotating every two weeks to highlight LAX Delta One destinations
Sushi counter – 11:00 am – 10:00 pm (last order)
Cocktails, wine, premium wine, and spirits
Those who prefer to sip their way around the world can sample LAX Delta One Lounge “Destination Libations,” with signature cocktails represented by airport codes. Try a Mai Tai-inspired cocktail representing Tahiti (PPT), or a gin-forward mix that nods to London (LHR).
Wellness:
Nap pods with 5 massage and 3 zero-gravity chairs;
Hyperice self-care devices (percussion gun, compression boots)
Full-body Human Touch massage chairs in semi-private pods
Rolling wellness cart featuring Grown Alchemist samples, oshibori towels, spa water
Dedicated shower suites
located in Delta Sky Club, not directly in Delta One Lounge
Shoeshine and valet steaming available upon request
SkyView lamps in wellness area
Local Partners:
The LAX Delta One Lounge partners with several local LA businesses and restaurants, including:
SQUIRL
Milla Chocolates – Featured on the dessert table
The Butcher’s Daughter – Partner for wellness drinks
Verve (on a personal note, I’m thrilled to see Verve versus Starbucks)
I chose not to take part in an in-person media preview, but I do hope to visit as a passenger in the near future. This looks like a nice competitor to the United Airlines Polaris Lounge in Terminal 7 (or Qantas First Lounge in the Bradley Terminal) and a step above the American Airlines Flagship Lounge in Terminal 4.
This is a much smaller lounge than New York, but Delta’s international footprint is also much smaller at this lounge.
