Delta Air Lines (DAL.N: Quote, Profile, Research) is set to announce later on Monday that it will become the official airline of the New York Yankees, the New York Post said.

As part of a marketing deal, Delta will have a luxury suite behind home plate at the new Yankee Stadium, slated to open in the spring, according to the paper.

Delta is also the official airline of the city's other baseball team, the Mets.

A Delta spokeswoman declined to comment on the report.
