Why Can’t Every Day Be Pink?

Published October 29th, 2009 in Community, Flight Attendants, Onboard, Promotions, Sponsorships | 2 Comments →

Delta raised the bar this year with its breast cancer awareness and fundraising efforts. This year’s highlights include:

· Melissa Etheridge performing an in-flight concert for approximately 60 employee breast cancer survivors on Delta’s signature Pink Plane.

· Delta employees staffing 25 Pink Boutiques at airports and other Delta facilities across the system. The Boutiques featured a variety of clothing and other pink accessories with all proceeds benefiting BCRF.

· Onboard, flight attendants sold pink lemonade donated by The Coca-Cola Company as a fundraiser and accepted donations from customers.

· Employees used their attire to show support. Some flight attendants sported special pink versions of Delta’s signature dress while other customer-facing employees donned pink shirts, ties, pocket squares and other accessories.

· A variety of individual actions demonstrated employee support for the fundraising efforts, including MSP-based flight attendant Heinie Lund doing backflips in the galley to raise donations. He and fellow flight attendant Vicki McCutchan have raised more than $4,200 to date.

These are just a few of the ways Delta people took Flight for the Fight in October. To hear firsthand some of our employee survivor stories, check out the YouTube video above.

BCRF & Delta: Pretty in Pink

Published September 29th, 2009 in Flight Attendants | 1 Comment →

Wow! I can’t believe that in just a few hours several of my Delta colleagues and I—all breast cancer survivors—will be joining Melissa Etheridge on a chartered flight from New York to Washington, DC.

During our flight on Delta’s signature “pink plane”, Melissa, who serves as a Hard Rock International PINKTOBER™ ambassador, will perform an in-flight concert. Just prior to the flight, Delta will help light the JFK air traffic control tower pink in honor of breast cancer awareness month, which begins in October. What an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

As a Delta Flight Attendant based in LAX, I’m personally thrilled to be a part of it. My battle with breast cancer began in 1998 at the age of thirty five. During that time, I took a leave from Delta so that I could undergo treatment, surgeries and radiation therapy. It was a challenging time, but I’m proud to say that I’m winning the fight. I have now been a survivor for ten years as well as having three children post breast cancer and after age thirty-five! I still face additional surgery as procedures have become increasing advanced over the years and I want to take advantage of the many options now available to those diagnosed with breast cancer.

I’m now back at work serving Delta customers from around the world. I’m so proud to be part of a company that has supported me and many other employee survivors while we were fighting our battle with cancer. And, at the same time, is committed to so many fantastic causes and organizations like The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Delta has stepped up to the plate in a big way here and it is admirable to see the efforts put forth for this very worthy cause.

I encourage you to do your exams consistently and mammograms early in life especially if you have a history of breast cancer in your family.

I have met some incredible people at this event and feel honored and privileged to be part of this group! You can help support BCRF this month by purchasing pink lemonade for $2 onboard Delta flights worldwide or by bidding for the one-of-a-kind Carlos Falchi guitar strap designed for and autographed by Melissa Etheridge, courtesy of Delta Sky.

Thank you all for your support as always!

My New Uniform Has Arrived

Published March 30th, 2009 in Flight Attendants | 6 Comments →

I am so excited to report for duty today in my new Richard Tyler, Delta uniform. As a Flight Attendant in my twenty-fifth year, this is the best uniform I’ve had the honor to be in. (Update: More first day pics of our Northwest employees in their new Delta uniforms here).

new-uniform

Anticipation over the transition from Northwest to Delta has been an inspiration to make other positive changes in my life as well. Now is the perfect time to get motivated to tackle goals that have been put off or forgotten about.

A special thanks to each of you out there helping each other move forward during these exciting yet challenging times, including our valued customers.

For more information on the significance of the orchids worn on our new Delta uniforms today, read more here.

If you’re one of our employees wearing a new uniform today, share your experience!

All the best,

What’s Red Hot, Cool in Blue and Pretty in Pink?

Published July 15th, 2008 in Flight Attendants | 9 Comments →

You guessed it! Delta Flight Attendants in their Richard Tyler uniforms!

The Richard Tyler Collection for Delta, inspired by the era of glamorous air travel, includes a wide variety of pieces that are both fashionable and functional. The uniforms, which use the Delta color palette of navy blue and red, are designed to reflect timeless elegance. Some of the items featured in the Richard Tyler Collection for Delta’s female employees are blazers, blouses, felt hat, silk scarves, pants, skirts, and wrap dresses including the signature “Red Dress”!

Designs for Delta’s male employees include blazers, pea coats, pocket squares, dress shirts, and a reversible all-weather coat.

This October, Delta will officially unveil the new limited edition signature “Pink dress” patterned after the Richard Tyler-designed Red dress that can be worn by our female Delta flight attendants in support of the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Since 2005, when the Pink Plane first took flight, Delta has raised more than $1 million for BCRF through donations from customers, employees and The Delta Foundation. Delta’s pink and white Boeing 757 flies throughout the year to continue to create awareness for the cause.

What do you think of the new uniform choice for October? Our flight attendants liked the option so much the dresses sold out in only two days!
