Delta Air Lines, Inc. was awarded a $186,778 firm fixed-price delivery order for domestic charter air transportation services to Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina, by the Air Mobility Command (AMC), a component of the U.S. Department of Defense. The award was issued on April 15, 2016, with an ultimate completion date of April 26, 2016, and was executed under the Domestic Charter Airlift Services 2014-2016 indefinite delivery vehicle. No small business set-aside was applied to this contract, reflecting Delta's status as a large, established commercial carrier. This delivery order represents one of numerous charter airlift awards Delta has received from AMC in support of the Air Force's flexible personnel and cargo transportation requirements.

Beyond domestic charter services, the company holds multiple active indefinite delivery contracts with AMC and the General Services Administration, including the GSA City Pair Program contracts valued at $489.7 million (FY2026) and $308.8 million (FY2025), as well as an AMC Civil Reserve Air Fleet contract valued at $145 million through September 2028. Delta's federal portfolio encompasses over 200 prior delivery orders and demonstrates the company's extensive capability to support government mobility operations across military installations and strategic locations domestically and internationally.
