Delta now serves 66 international destinations from ATL, like its recently added flights to Brussels and Naples. That’s in addition to more frequent flights to Barcelona, Zurich, Rome, Cancun, Athens, Toronto, Barbados, and Curacao. 

Delta’s domestic schedule also keeps growing, including in its home state. That includes 20% more intra-state seats to Savannah, Augusta, Albany, Brunswick, Columbus and Valdosta.

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens said: “Home to the world’s busiest and most efficient airport, Atlanta’s position as a global leader for cultural and business connectivity is only enhanced by Delta’s expansion of their domestic and international network.”

“As our hometown airline and the state’s largest private employer, Delta plays an integral role in our economy through workforce opportunities, community investments and meaningful partnerships.” 

Joe Miller, VP – Airport Operations, ATL, commented: “Our growth and strength in Atlanta come from the dedication of Delta people who live our Brand Beliefs—Welcoming, Elevated, and Caring—every day. Our team’s pride, unity, and relentless drive to improve are what truly make the Delta difference.”
