Delta Airlines is launching a new SkySpa, designed exclusively for its employees, in Salt Lake City next month – the first of three in the works.

The SkySpa will include walk-in appointments for discounted massages, skin and nail care, hair styling, makeup application and uniform alterations.

The US airline has partnered with XpresSpa – which already has 50 airport spa locations – to help set up the facilities, which are aimed not just at flight attendants, but also airport customer service agents, cargo, tech ops, ground support equipment and other employees.

“When our employees feel great, it’s reflected in the experience they provide our customers,” said Alison Ausband, Delta’s SVP of in-flight service.

“Making sure our employees are well taken care of and have the tools to look and perform their best is something we’re proud to do for our people. We know working at the airport or on board can take a toll, and offering the SkySpa at some of our busiest hubs helps address that.”

After the Salt Lake City launch in October, locations in Atlanta and Detroit are planned for next year.
