Delta to increase service to Europe summer 2015
Delta announced Monday it will be operating 28 additional flights next summer to airports across Europe.
The majority of the flights will originate from New York-JFK to popular destinations, including Athens, Greece, which will see a rise in frequency from seven flights a week this year to 11 in 2015. Other destinations also include Istanbul; Prague; Nice, France; and Shannon, Ireland. Seasonal services will also operate from Atlanta to Barcelona, Spain; and Milan; among others.
Elsewhere, following the introduction of year-round services between JFK and Zurich, there will be complementary summer operations to the Swiss City from Atlanta starting June 17, 2015, plus flights to Dublin from Atlanta, running alongside the annual service from JFK.
“We saw incredible appetite for travel between the U.S. and Europe this summer,” said Perry Cantarutti, S.V.P.–Europe, the Middle East and Africa. “Next year promises to be a very busy year for the teams in EMEA, New York and Atlanta, but I have every confidence in the operation as we grow our network across the trans-Atlantic.”
