At Economy Class and Beyond, we love a good amenity kit. Delta Air Lines has tied up a new partnership with Italian fashion house Missoni for its next amenity kits in Delta One.
Let’s see what’s in it.
The new Delta One amenity kits will feature Missoni’s signature textured zigzag pattern on the exterior of the bag. That same intentional design continues inside the bag, as Missoni and Delta teams created an exclusive pattern and colour palette that celebrates the view from the window at 30,000 feet while paying homage to Delta’s nearly 100-year flying heritage.
Inside the kits, you will find Grown Alchemist skin care products, a bamboo toothbrush and toothpaste, an eye mask, ear plugs, socks and a pen. Alongside the Missoni amenity kits, customers flying in Delta One will also enjoy the Delta One Bedding collection featuring a cozy duvet, large sleeping pillow and slippers .
Meanwhile, a selection of Missoni’s home collection will also be featured in the Delta One Lounge at New York-JFK, which will open on 26th June 2024.
Rollout
The new amenity kits will be available in Delta One beginning in mid-July on all Delta flights to and from Italy and Paris before launching worldwide in September. Delta Premium Select will continue to feature amenity kits designed by Someone Somewhere.

Mauricio Parise, Vice President of brand Experience Design said:
“We’ve been intentional about creating a Delta One experience—both on the ground and in the air—that feels truly premium and elevated, and Missoni’s elegance and prestige aligns perfectly with that vision,”
“The Missoni-designed amenity kits, along with unique design elements that will be featured in our Delta One Lounge at JFK, will offer a distinct, high-end enhancement to our most premium spaces.”
“The Missoni amenity kits have been meticulously designed, embodying a timeless declaration of elegance and a profound connection with the surrounding world,”
“Additionally, customizing the Delta One Lounge at JFK signifies an important new frontier for our lifestyle approach. We are delighted to partner with Delta on the Delta One experience.”
It’s got a pen. Therefore it’s a complete amenity kit.
It’s a pretty amenity kit – that’s for sure. But it has the one thing I want in any amenity kit in it. A pen.
Why?
I’ve got used to putting a pen in my bag (normally a hotel pen, I’ll be the first to admit), but in the past not having a pen is a royal pain when you have arrivals cards to fill out. Thankfully, a lot of ports of entry are ditching those cards (although there are those territories that stubbornly hang on to them for reasons – be they immigration or customs purposes).
Having a simple thing like a pen in an amenity kit completes it in a way that makes it more useful during a flight.
And if you pay for the silk screening, you’ve got a free advert too.
As for the Delta One kit, it does look rather pretty and well put together – with amenities inside that can be useful during and after the flight, whilst providing a useful container that can be upcycled too.
Not a bad kit at all.
