Delta to operate its largest-ever schedule of flights to Europe next summer
After a record summer across the Atlantic, Delta Air Lines announced Friday that it will operate its largest-ever schedule of flights to Europe in the summer of 2024. From major U.S. airports, travelers can choose from the historic city of Naples (Italy), the lush green landscape of Shannon (Ireland), picturesque Zurich (Switzerland), among many other destinations.
“There’s never been a better time to explore Europe on Delta,” said Joe Esposito, Senior Vice President – Network Planning, “and customers looking ahead to summer adventures abroad will find plenty of inspiring options – coupled with the premium services and amenities we know Delta customers anticipate and enjoy.”
FROM NEW YORK-JFK
Delta is the largest carrier to Europe, Africa and the Middle East from its JFK hub and will operate nearly 260 weekly flights next summer to 18 countries and 29 destinations throughout the region.
For the first time, Delta will connect customers with nonstop service from JFK to the ancient city of Naples, Italy – the gateway to the Amalfi coast and popular sites like Mount Vesuvius. Delta’s new daily service to Naples — beginning May 23, 2024 — complements the airline’s existing service to Milan, Venice and Rome.
Delta will also return to Shannon, Ireland, from JFK, beginning May 23, 2024. Last operated in 2019, this nonstop service joins Delta’s existing flying to Dublin, including newly announced service to the Irish capital from Minneapolis-Saint Paul.
Rounding out Delta’s new trans-Atlantic offerings from JFK next summer is a nonstop flight to Munich, which will operate three times a week beginning April 9, 2024.
FROM ATLANTA
Delta will once again offer a nonstop flight from Atlanta to Zurich four times a week beginning May 31, 2024, adding to nearly 180 weekly flights to 21 destinations in Europe, Africa and the Middle East from its hub in the Georgia state capital.
Delta customers can also look for even more flights from Atlanta to Paris and Venice this summer, as the airline increases its weekly flights to both top destinations.
FROM LOS ANGELES
Meanwhile, on the U.S. west coast, Delta’s nonstop, daily flight from LAX to Auckland, New Zealand, which begins Oct. 28, 2023, will extend to year-round service, operating daily from November to March and three times weekly from April to October. Delta will also increase service from LAX to Sydney, Australia, to twice-daily beginning this December.
Following winter service to Shanghai from Seattle and Detroit, Delta will also resume a four-times-weekly, year-round service to Shanghai-Pudong International Airport from its Los Angeles hub starting March 31, 2024. This previously operated route will allow Delta customers to conveniently connect to many other cities in China via the airline’s partnership with China Eastern Airlines.
Delta serves 13 international cities from LAX, including Paris, London, Tokyo-Haneda and Sydney – and from a newly completed Delta Sky Way at LAX.
MORE FLYING TO CUSTOMER FAVORITES
Delta customers can also look for even more flights to some of their top destinations next summer, including additional flights to Paris from Cincinnati and Detroit; to Barcelona from JFK; to Reykjavik from Detroit; and to Athens from Boston.
On most trans-oceanic flights, customers have a choice of four experiences: Delta One or Delta One Suites, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin.
