Now, they can leverage airline-issued iPhones that they’re already using for other business uses like checking seat assignments and providing upgrades, to now facilitate secure, seamless, and effortless payments from travelers, enhancing the overall customer experience.

“Through our collaboration with leading technology partners like Apple, we are revolutionizing payment experiences for our merchants. Tap to Pay on iPhone expands where payments can be accepted, even across all domestic Delta Air Lines flights.
