Anime Takes Flight: Crunchyroll Partners with Delta for In-Flight Entertainment

In a significant move for the anime industry, Crunchyroll, the leading anime streaming platform, has announced a partnership with Delta Air Lines to bring a curated selection of anime titles to in-flight entertainment starting next month. This partnership will allow passengers on more than 165,000 Delta flights to access award-winning series like Solo Leveling, Black Clover, Horimiya, Fruits Basket, and My Roommate Is a Cat.

For Delta SkyMiles members, the experience will be even more immersive. In addition to the five featured titles, these passengers will have full access to Crunchyroll's extensive catalog of over 2,000 anime movies and series through the Delta Sync Wi-Fi experience, available on more than 940 aircraft.

"Anime is a pop culture powerhouse with a passionate and long-term fandom," says Terry Li, EVP of Emerging Business at Crunchyroll. "This partnership is a meaningful part of Delta's ongoing commitment to delivering industry-leading entertainment that's as dynamic and diverse as the customers we serve."

The move comes as Crunchyroll continues to expand its reach, with recent box office successes like Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle and the upcoming Chainsaw Man - The Movie: Reze Arc. By bringing anime to the skies, Crunchyroll and Delta are ensuring that fans can stay connected to the content they love, even while traveling.
