ATLANTA- Delta Air Lines (DL) plans to expand its Alaska network next summer, enhancing capacity and reintroducing key connections to meet the growing demand for travel to the region.
Beginning in May 2025, Delta will implement a series of upgrades and route changes, connecting more travelers to Alaska’s unique landscapes and experiences, as reported by Ishrion Aviation.
Delta Alaska Flights
Atlanta-Anchorage Route
Starting May 22, Delta will upgrade its Atlanta (ATL) to Anchorage (ANC) route to a larger aircraft, replacing the Boeing 757-200 with the Boeing 767-300ER.
This change will allow for increased passenger capacity and improved comfort for travelers flying directly from Delta’s Atlanta hub to Alaska’s largest city.
Salt Lake City-Fairbanks Returns
Delta is also reintroducing service from Salt Lake City (SLC) to Fairbanks (FAI) next summer.
This route, which has been suspended for several years, will reconnect Salt Lake City with Fairbanks, providing an additional option for travelers looking to explore Alaska’s interior.
Fairbanks, known for its wilderness, wildlife, and access to the northern lights, is a popular destination for adventurous travelers, and Delta’s renewed service aims to support the region’s tourism industry.
Detroit to Anchorage
In addition to the Atlanta route upgrade and Salt Lake City service, Delta will increase the frequency of its Detroit (DTW) to Anchorage (ANC) flights from three times per week to daily service.
This seven-times-weekly frequency will accommodate the growing number of travelers from the Midwest to Alaska, offering greater flexibility for those seeking outdoor adventures and sightseeing opportunities in Alaska.
Other Updates
As shared by Adrian Waltz in the Diio update, Delta Air Lines (DL) is introducing several limited-time routes in early 2025. The carrier will operate twice-weekly flights from Atlanta (ATL) to FAR and from Boston (BNA) to MCO, both exclusively in March 2025.
Additionally, Delta plans to launch daily service between Detroit (DTW) and San Jose (SJC) starting July 2025, while also introducing daily summer service between FAI and SLC beginning June 2025.
A single flight between Indianapolis (IND) and MCO is scheduled for April 2025, and the airline will operate one flight between HOU and SBN in September 2025.
Delta is discontinuing LGA-NAS service after May 2025.
