London, July 09, 2002 - Delta Air Lines will introduce Atlanta`s first
nonstop service to Palm Springs, Calif. on Dec. 1, 2002.

Delta will offer customers one daily flight on the 154-passenger B-737-800
aircraft during the winter season from Dec. 1, 2002, through April 30, 2003.

“Palm Springs is one of the top leisure destinations in the world, and
Delta`s new nonstop service from Atlanta gives customers new
single-connection service from cities throughout the Southeast and
Northeast, as well as some Caribbean and Latin American destinations,” said
Subodh Karnik, Delta`s senior vice president - Network and Revenue
Management.

Delta and the Delta Connection carriers operate 900 flights a day with
nonstop service to 180 destinations at Atlanta`s Hartsfield International
