Delta announces plans for new international routes in the Middle East

Soon, passengers will be able to make Delta Airlines reservations for flights to Middle Eastern destinations. This comes after U.S. airlines and three Gulf carriers resolved a more than three-year-old dispute over unfair competition. Delta, American Airlines and United have had disputes with Qatar, Etihad and Emirates for a long time. Delta Airlines flight schedules have been governed by unfair susidies, along with other unfair advantages over the years but that ends now. Delta's CEO Ed Bastian said the deal would allow Delta to add new destinations. Delta did service a route from Atlanta to Dubai as part of its flight schedule, but the service was cancelled in 2015.

Delta announces new routes from Cincinnati 'focus city'

Delta Air Lines is growing again in Cincinnati, announcing two new routes and an overall increase in capacity at its one-time hub.

Non-stop flights to Austin will begin May 1 while service to Phoenix launches Nov. 4. Delta will use Bombardier CRJ-700 regional jets for the Austin flights and Boeing 737-800s for the Phoenix flights. The Phoenix service will include one daily round-trip flight while the Austin schedule features one round-trip flight every day except Saturday.

With the new service, Delta says it will now be flying to all 20 of the top domestic air travel markets from Cincinnati.

Beyond the two new routes, Delta also will bolster capacity on several of its existing routes from Cincinnati. 

The latest round of expansion in follows another from February 2017 that reversed years of significant reductions by the airline there.  

The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) was once a major hub for Delta, but the airline has downsized there during the past decade. Delta has axed dozens of routes and hundreds of flights in Cincinnati during that time, a product of phasing out flying on 50-seat regional jets and updates to its route network following the company’s 2008 merger with Northwest Airlines.

Delta has cut more than 580 daily flights in the past decade at CVG, according to a 2017 analysis by The Cincinnati Enquirer.

Delta had labeled CVG as one of its hub airports until late last year. But, in a presentation to investors in December, Delta downgraded its terminology for Cincinnati to “focus city."  

For now, at least, Delta has modestly begun to grow again in Cincinnati. The company says it has now boosted seat capacity there by 12% during the past two years, doing so through a combination of new destinations, more flights and bigger planes.

Delta says its latest expansion also includes more capacity on about 15 routes it already flew from Cincinnati. Some routes will see expanded flight schedules while others get larger aircraft, a move that increases the number of seats Delta can sell.

Seattle service that had been seasonal will now operate year-round. The airline also will add more flights to its existing schedule between Cincinnati and Baltimore/Washington (BWI).

“With these additions, customers in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky will have more choices to go to the top business and leisure destinations that are important to them, and we look forward to continuing this growth,” Eric Phillips, Delta's Cincinnati market chief, said in a statement.

Once the new flights begin, Delta says its Cincinnati schedule will include 82 peak day departures to 36 destinations. That’s down from 89 daily peak departures from Delta’s summer 2017 schedule and from the 106 daily non-stop flights in its schedule from summer 2014, according to the Enquirer.

Delta Air Lines Emerges Most Punctual Legacy Carrier in North America

Delta's performance is all the more exceptional as it also finished ahead of smaller airlines like Alaska Airlines and Sun Country Airlines.

Delta Air Lines scored an on-time performance of 83 percent

Delta Air Lines has emerged the stand-out performer in a new report that measures on-time performance among airlines and airports across North America. 

With an on-time performance (OTP) of 83 percent, Delta soars past its competition among fellow legacy carriers, earning a four-star rating from the OAG, a flight information company based in the UK. 

Delta's performance is all the more exceptional, as it also finished ahead of smaller airlines like Alaska Airlines and Sun Country Airlines, which have fewer routes and carry fewer passengers, analysts note. 
"In a US air travel ecosystem that relies on major hubs, it's easy for a single delay or cancelation to knock an entire day of flights off schedule," reads the report. 

"Despite managing one of the largest fleets in the world, Delta has remained a cut above its competitors." 

For comparison, Southwest Airlines, American Airlines and United Airlines all scored 79 percent in OTP and earned three stars. 

The smaller Hawaiian Airlines is the only North American carrier to receive a five-star rating for its 88 percent performance rate. 

Among the biggest airport hubs in North America, Salt Lake City International Airport emerged the leader with an OTP of 85 percent, followed closely by Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.

Delta and Korean Air in joint venture 

Korean Air and Delta Air lines have signed a much-anticipated joint venture agreement, beginning the process of coordinating services across the Pacific.

The agreement will allow the SkyTeam members to coordinate schedules and pricing, jointly sell and market flights, and share revenues and costs between South Korea and the USA.

The accord will allow Korean Air and Delta to more effectively compete with the immunised partnerships between American Airlines and Japan Airlines and United Airlines and All Nippon Airways (ANA). 

The airlines have been working towards an agreement for some time. They signed a memorandum of understanding towards forming a joint venture in March, which followed an expanded codeshare agreement in 2016.

Delta and Korean Air have been partners for more than 20 years.

Delta will provide service in the United States through its connecting hubs in Atlanta, Detroit, Los Angeles, Minneapolis-St. Paul, New York, Salt Lake City and Seattle; Aeromexico will offer greater access to Mexico through its hubs in Mexico City, Monterrey and Guadalajara.

The carriers are writing a new chapter in the history of aviation in the Americas with the first immunized transborder alliance between Mexico and the United States.
