Delta Air Lines is set to launch a new nonstop route from Salt Lake City International Airport to South America, marking the first-ever such service from the Utah capital. Starting December 4, the airline will offer daily flights to Jorge Chávez International Airport in Lima, Peru, continuing until January 25, 2026. The route will be serviced by a Boeing 767-300ER.
The new connection aims to facilitate travel for those interested in exploring Peru's attractions like Machu Picchu and the Amazon rainforest. It also offers opportunities for visitors heading north to experience Utah's mountains and national parks.
"This new route is a significant milestone for Delta and our customers in Salt Lake City and throughout the Mountain West," stated Paul Baldoni, senior vice president of network planning at Delta. "With this expanded connectivity through our Salt Lake City hub, we're proud to offer a faster, more convenient way to reach Lima and other major cities across South America."
