Delta Air Lines to launch flights to Grenada and St Vincent from Atlanta

Flight frequency to these destinations will start daily, reducing to five weekly from early January. Delta plans to operate these routes with 737-800 aircraft, with both destinations sharing similar departure and arrival schedules to optimize connections.

Delta's broader Caribbean network will see 24 routes flying from Atlanta in December. A snapshot shows 20 routes will have at least daily service, while some will have up to triple-daily operations. Prominent routes include service to destinations like San Juan, Montego Bay, and Nassau, where Delta maintains significant passenger volumes.

The Department of Transportation noted last year, the Atlanta-San Juan route alone carried 566,000 round-trip passengers out of 616,000 available seats, indicating a high occupancy rate. Major connecting cities for these passengers included Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and Austin.

Delta's upcoming Caribbean expansion underscores its robust strategy to connect the region through its main hub in Atlanta, potentially boosting travel during the high-demand Christmas period.
