Faces of Travel
At Delta Air Lines, we actively seek diversity, boldly pursue equity, and consciously promote inclusion to create a sense of belonging for all people. We understand how important it is to represent and reflect the world we hope to bridge together. One of the many ways we are closing representation gaps is by accurately showcasing diverse groups traveling and sharing their stories. In order for people to feel welcomed while traveling, they need to first see themselves represented.
Faces of Travel is core to our long term commitment to increase representation and visibility within travel culture. Our campaign includes anthem films as well as a free visual library of images and videos available for all to use in travel content and visual communications. It features travelers of diverse backgrounds exploring different destinations around the globe to create more authentic and inclusive content.

The visual library is an important part of our commitment to move the travel industry and culture at large forward on diverse representation.
We hosted pop-up activations in Los Angeles at Westfield Century City and the ADCOLOR conference – the premier diversity gathering for creative professionals – as part of our commitment to increase representation and elevate emerging artists.
