Delta is making bold moves across the Atlantic this summer, operating its most expansive trans-Atlantic schedule ever from key hubs including New York-JFK, Atlanta, Boston, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and Detroit. With this growth, Delta becomes the largest U.S. carrier to Italy, Greece, France, the Netherlands, Iceland, Denmark, Sweden and the Czech Republic, and the only U.S. airline flying direct to Prague.

And while the celebrations span the map this summer, Italy is taking center stage. Delta has increased service to the country by more than 10% year-over-year, reinforcing its position as the #1 U.S. carrier in the Italian market.

Boston (BOS) to Barcelona, Spain (BCN)

Boston Logan's Terminal E turned into a mini fiesta with flamenco dancers and a Spanish guitarist, with mocktails to match. The energy of Barcelona was alive and well at the gate, setting the tone for a summer of tapas and sangria.

Boston (BOS) to Milan, Italy (MXP)

The next day, Milan took center stage with a live opera and elegant refreshments. Customers were treated to a taste of Italy's fashion and cultural capital before wheels up.

New York (JFK) to Catania, Sicily (CTA)

Delta's first-ever direct flight to Catania took off with a sweet Sicilian send-off. Think: a custom cannoli-inspired cake, Italian treats and live music from a local Sicilian artist. The celebration captured the spirit of Sicily's eastern coast-Mount Etna, Taormina and Siracusa included.

Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) to Copenhagen, Denmark (CPH)

Delta and the Metropolitan Airports Commission marked the launch with speeches, live music and a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The event brought together Delta leaders and local officials to celebrate a new link between the Midwest and Scandinavia.

Also launched in May:

  • Detroit (DTW) to Dublin, Ireland (DUB)
  • Atlanta (ATL) to Naples, Italy (NAP)
  • Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) to Rome, Italy (FCO)

And the momentum continues with Atlanta to Brussels (BRU) route launched June 10.

With new routes, more seats and noteworthy send-offs, Delta is giving customers more ways than ever to experience the world whether it's sipping espresso in Rome, flamenco dancing in Barcelona or exploring the charm of Copenhagen. Book your flight at delta.com.
