Delta’s Loyalty-Amex Deal Drives $2B Q3 2025 Revenue

Delta Air Lines has revealed that its Q3 2025 record revenue was significantly boosted by its loyalty program and its partnership with American Express.
In Q3 2025, Delta received approximately $2 billion from American Express, representing a 12 percent increase compared to the same period last year.
In 2024, Delta earned about $7.4 billion from its partnership with Amex, and executives now forecast this could grow to $10 billion in the long term.
The revenue is generated from co-branded credit card spending by Delta’s frequent flyer customers, who use the Amex Delta credit cards for their everyday purchases.
This reinforces Delta's focus on attracting and serving high-paying travelers. Just recently, Delta announced plans to launch new Delta One check-in areas at all of Delta’s US hub airports, as part of the airline’s strategy to expand its premium offerings.
