New York-bound Delta One passengers are in for a treat at the airline’s new lounge, featuring Hyperice recovery tech products and relaxation pods designed to enhance the wellness experience for premium travelers.
As wellness becomes a key focus in travel, Delta is proving that the journey matters just as much as the destination. The airline has introduced a new Delta One Lounge at John F. Kennedy International Airport just in time for peak summer travel, providing jet setters with an exclusive space to enjoy wellness-centered perks.
Exclusive Amenities at the Delta One Lounge
Delta One Lounge guests can enjoy a range of premium relaxation services, including:

Additionally, the lounge offers a full suite of recovery products from Hyperice, allowing travelers to optimize their wellness routine. Those looking to freshen up can take advantage of eight shower suites stocked with towels, bathrobes, and slippers.
Delta’s Commitment to a Luxury Experience
Claude Roussel, Vice President of Delta Sky Clubs and Lounge Experience, emphasized the airline’s focus on guest comfort:
“Our teams have spared no detail to ensure Delta One Lounge guests receive a truly memorable experience. We want our guests to feel the difference here; moreover, we want them to feel welcomed and valued from the moment they step through the door.”
Other Airlines Investing in Wellness Travel
Delta is not the only airline prioritizing wellness. Other major airlines have made similar moves:

- Cathay Pacific has created a dedicated wellness area in The Pier First-Class Lounge at Hong Kong International Airport, offering day suites, massage services, and shower rooms.
The Growing Trend of Fitness & Wellness in Airports
Airports worldwide are evolving into hubs for fitness and wellness, ensuring travelers can maintain their health routines on the go:
-
Melbourne Airport recently opened its first full-service health club and wellness center, offering:
- Personal training & group fitness classes
- Reformer Pilates & yoga sessions
- An indoor pool
- Recovery amenities, including compression therapy & wellness treatments
- Roam Fitness has expanded its presence, opening an in-airport gym inside Philadelphia International Airport last year.
With airlines and airports recognizing the demand for wellness-centered travel, Delta’s new JFK Lounge marks a significant step in offering luxury relaxation and recovery options for travelers.
