Delta Air Lines has partnered with Coca-Cola to bring “flying galleries” on one of its aircraft.

The two companies have partnered with 12 artists from all over the world to transform tray tables on one of the airline’s 767 aircraft into artwork. The artists transformed the trays, influenced by the culture and landscapes of popular travel destinations like Mexico City, New York City, Paris and London.

Delta has a significant presence as one of the five major airlines to fly in and out of the Dayton International Airport. It also has flights out of the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport. About 22,827 passengers flew Delta at Dayton International Airport in December.

Delta Air Lines is expanding its travel options at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport, adding additional flights in five cities. The number of seats will increase 6 percent in the city, and more than 75 percent of all flights will operate with aircraft providing a first-class cabin.
