Delta Air Lines Asks USDOT For Additional MIA-HAV Route For December 2017
/21 April 2017
"Delta plans to expand its service between Miami and Havana, Cuba, offering an additional daily nonstop flight between the cities. Pending regulatory approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation [USDOT], Delta would begin operating this additional frequency by Dec. 15, 2017
“Delta has established a strong framework for sustainable success in the Cuban market,” said Jose “Pepe” Zapata, Delta’s General Manager-Central America and the Caribbean. “The proposed flight would provide additional service and competition for South Florida, which has the largest Cuban-American population in the United States.”
Delta returned to Cuba on Dec. 1, 2016, after a 55-year hiatus with the launch of a nonstop daily flight to Havana from New York’s JFK International Airport, Miami International Airport and the airline’s hometown airport, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International.
Pending governmental approvals, the additional MIA-HAV flight will be available for booking through www.delta.com."
