Delta has transported the "Anna Can" and its camera-wielding Dr Pepperazzi all over America and beyond during the past nine months. Tens of thousands of miles have been flown with the final number being feverishly tallied by accountants from Ernst & Young for publication at a later date.
Delta traces its roots back to a humble Macon Georgia crop dusting operation in 1925. Four years later in 1929, owner C.E. Woolman began passenger service and through numerous aquisitions Delta is now one of the predominant airlines in the world. Delta's headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia, home to the world's busiest airport. At left is one of almost 1,000 Delta jet departures from Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport each day.
In its history, Delta has had a number of defining slogans including "Airline of the South," "Delta is ready when you are," " We love to fly, and it shows," and the most recent "Keep Climbing."

Before we depart this page, let's review the safety features of the Delta aircraft. Six years ago Delta unveiled the first of its eye-catching, comical safety announcements. Delta flight attendant Katherine Lee starred in the first safety video which earned her Internet acclaim for her finger wagging and a nickname Deltalina for her resemblance to Angelina Jolie.

Follow up safety videos - all equally as humorous - are presented below including a holiday version which debuted last November.
