Delta Air Lines (ISIN US2473617023) stock stood at USD 82.76 on the NYSE on September 24, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, up 1.24 percent from the prior close of USD 81.75. The airline added a fresh shareholder-return checkpoint when its board declared a USD 0.2150 quarterly dividend on September 24, 2026.
Dividend sets the next checkpoint
According to Delta Air Lines on September 24, 2026, shareholders of record at the close of business on October 15, 2026, will receive the payment on November 5, 2026. The declared amount is the concrete near-term distribution event for the stock.
The USD 0.2150 payment corresponds to a USD 0.86 annualized rate if repeated for four quarters. The record-date requirement separates the dividend timetable from the September 24 trading session.
Q2 revenue reaches USD 19.757 billion
