Delta Airlines x Team USA
What makes Team USA great goes beyond a single athlete. It’s the hard work, resilience, and dedication of the collective.
When Delta became the official airline of Team USA, we decided to showcase the individual journeys of 15 Olympians and Paralympians from Team USA.
A TV campaign featuring 5 films by 3 directors, took off during the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. These films resonated with audiences worldwide, reaching an impressive 487 million viewers.

The Team behind team USA
Behind every Olympian is someone like Raj Misir, Barbara Bogner, and Allen Tran - the Team Behind Team USA. These specialists ensure the world's greatest athletes have the things they need like the perfect ice, the sharpest skate edge, and the most balanced meal, enabling them to perform at their peak.
Recognizing the importance of this support team, Delta proudly honored them with commissioned portraits by artist Shyama Golden.
Displayed at 5 Delta Sky Clubs across America, featured on Late Night with Seth Meyers, and accessible to all at DeltaTeamPortraits.com, this portrait exhibition garnered over 100 million impressions.
