Travel has the power to connect people to the world and encourage a commitment to protect it. By connecting customers from the runway to the trailhead, Delta serves as a gateway to many of America's national parks, helping travelers discover destinations that welcome more than 323 million visitors annually. From Grand Teton National Park and Glacier National Park to Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite National Park and Great Smoky Mountains National Park, many of the country’s most iconic parks are within a three-hour drive of a Delta-served airport, making it easier for customers to turn their next flight into an unforgettable outdoor adventure. Customers can find even more inspiration for their next national park getaway through Delta Vacations.

The partnership will help advance the NPF’s work to keep parks accessible, protected and meaningful, so more people can experience them while giving Delta customers, SkyMiles members and employees meaningful opportunities to get involved and care for these incredible places. 

Opportunities to protect America’s most beautiful places

The collaboration will extend the national park experience beyond the destination itself, with new opportunities for travelers to engage and support America’s national parks before, during and after their trips.

Starting today, Delta SkyMiles Members can support protecting America’s most beautiful places through mileage donations on their SkyWish platform. NPF will use donated miles in support of its mission to protect America's national parks and connect people to them.

Looking ahead, Delta will introduce airport experiences and unique ways to discover the parks. Customers and employees will be able to participate in hands-on volunteer experiences that support national parks and surrounding communities.

A shared commitment to the parks

Delta and NPF share a commitment to connecting people with nature while safeguarding the irreplaceable landscapes that inspire travel and exploration. Together, Delta and NPF are creating opportunities for travelers to discover national parks while fostering a deep, collective responsibility to safeguard them for future generations. By pairing Delta’s dedication to sustainable travel with NPF’s mission to protect and enhance these treasured places, the two organizations are working together to drive lasting positive connections and impact across the National Park System.
