May 31 marks International Flight Attendant Day, and Delta used the occasion to honor nearly 30,000 cabin crew members across its network.

Delta said the pairing underscores how the role has evolved while keeping the same core mission—safety, care and service at 35,000 feet.
Chief Operating Officer Dan Janki said flight attendants are central to a safe, reliable operation and to the customer loyalty that helps define Delta’s brand.
