Based in Paris, Ferri will oversee key strategic commercial and customer experience initiatives in the region, working closely with Delta’s European Joint Venture partners Air France, KLM and Virgin Atlantic, as the airline focuses on rebuilding its trans-Atlantic network.  

“Delta is the preferred carrier across the Atlantic and Nicolas’ vast international and alliances experience will be vital to our continued success as demand picks up and we reopen travel corridors across the region,” said Alain Bellemare, Delta’s President – International.

“With customers returning to the skies, we look ahead to 2022 and the rebuilding of our international portfolio with optimism.”

“I’m looking forward to meeting our customers and working closely with our partners to grow our business and build on Delta/Air France/KLM/Virgin Atlantic’s leading transatlantic joint venture.”

Ferri has been with Delta for 10 years, serving in leadership roles across the airline’s alliances, international, and commercial divisions.
