Tampa International Airport has confirmed that Delta Air Lines will be the primary tenant at its new Airside D facilities, set to open in 2028. The agreement includes Delta's commitment to use at least six gates and operate a lounge on the Mezzanine level of the new building. This contract could last up to 20 years.

Joe Lopano, CEO of Tampa International, expressed enthusiasm about continuing the partnership with Delta Air Lines, which he described as "an excellent partner" and one of the airport’s longest-operating carriers. He added, “This agreement will bring a world-class airline to what will be a world-class facility for our international and domestic routes."

Delta Air Lines has been operating at Tampa International for over 65 years, offering an extensive network from the airport with 13 destinations and averaging 36 daily departures in 2024. In recent data from Cirium’s Diio Mi airline planning system, Delta ranks as the third-largest airline at Tampa International in terms of weekly flights and seats.
