Delta Airlines, Crunchyroll, 169,000 seatback screens, 50,000 episodes, SkyMiles members
URGENT UPDATE: Delta Airlines has just announced a groundbreaking partnership with Crunchyroll, bringing an extensive library of anime to passengers on all flights. This innovative in-flight entertainment option will be available on 169,000 seatback screens across Delta’s fleet, enhancing the travel experience for anime enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Effective later this year, travelers will have access to a selection of 50,000 episodes from over 2,000 titles during their flights. While specific titles have yet to be revealed, this collaboration aims to cater to a wide array of tastes. Whether you’re a fan of classic series like “Akira” or more recent hits, the possibilities for in-flight binge-watching are vast.
Passengers will also have the option to connect their devices to in-flight Wi-Fi for a 24-hour Crunchyroll trial. However, reports suggest this feature may be limited to SkyMiles members. Regardless, no membership will be required to enjoy Crunchyroll’s offerings directly through Delta’s entertainment system.
This exciting development is set to transform the flying experience, allowing passengers to immerse themselves in the vibrant world of anime at 35,000 feet. As flight times can often feel long and monotonous, this new entertainment option is sure to make journeys more enjoyable. Anime fans can look forward to exploring a diverse range of genres, from adventure to romance, all while soaring through the skies.
With this partnership, Delta positions itself as a leader in innovative in-flight entertainment, making air travel not just a means of transportation but an opportunity for entertainment and relaxation. As the airline industry continues to evolve, Delta’s move to include Crunchyroll reflects a growing trend of personalized and engaging travel experiences.
Stay tuned for more updates on specific titles and additional features of this partnership as Delta and Crunchyroll prepare to launch their anime lineup later this year. The skies are about to get a whole lot more exciting for anime lovers!
