Delta Air Lines expands Airbus A350-900 operations across major hubs

Delta Air Lines continues to utilize its Airbus A350-900 fleet as a cornerstone of its international operations. The airline currently operates 35 A350s, with plans to expand this number significantly in the coming years. These aircraft have been deployed on routes covering nearly 20 international destinations.

Atlanta remains Delta's largest hub for A350 flights, with the airline operating 526 flights from this location in February alone. This includes routes to major cities such as Seoul, Johannesburg, and Tokyo. "Atlanta is also home to Delta’s two longest flights, the A350 routes to Johannesburg and Cape Town in South Africa," notes the airline.

Los Angeles serves as Delta's main transpacific gateway, with 348 A350 flights scheduled for February. The focus here is on long-haul routes to destinations like Sydney and Auckland. Lorie Argus, CEO of Melbourne Airport, commented on a new service: “We see it as a tremendous vote of confidence in Victoria's economy."
