Delta Express was a no-frills brand owned and operated by Delta Air Lines from 1996 to 2003.

Delta Express was based out of Orlando International Airport, and focused on leisure routes between Florida and the northeast United States, as well as certain parts of the midwest. It primarily competed with low-cost brands such as Continental Lite and US Airways' MetroJet, and low-cost carriers such as Southwest Airlines and in the final years of its operation, JetBlue Airways.

The Delta Express fleet consisted of one aircraft type, the Boeing 737-200, in a all coach class configuration. No in-flight entertainment or meal service was offered.

Delta Express was replaced in 2003 by Song, a new low-fare brand that Delta introduced, which has since also been dismantled.
