Discover the special livery for the Airbus A350 which will carry US olympic athletes.

Delta is the official airline of Team USA on the road to the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024, Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 and the Olympic and Paralympic Games Los Angeles 2028

The road to Paris is well on its way and Delta is already supporting Team USA as they travel to qualifying competitions, training events and Team USA activities. Delta partnered with 15 Team USA athlete ambassadors.

The surprise arrived at Toulouse, when spotters discovered the stunning new livery of an Airbus A350.

During the roll-out from Airbus factory, the special Olympic livery was discovered few days ago, on April 05, 2024.

The aircraft performed a taxi check and rejected takeoff test (RTO) on April 8, 2024.  It is the most challenging tests an airplane has to undergo for its certification trials.

The RTO is an emergency type maneuver that requires aircraft to stop just before taking-off due to onboard malfunctions or control tower command.

The Airbus A350-900 is currently under test registration F-WZGU until it takes its real registration N521DN.

Airbus already delivered 587 A350s. This Delta one is MSN661.
