New and increased services from Boston

, as it is one of the carrier’s major hubs on the East Coast. As such, the airline has just announced a major network boost for the carrier’s customers based in Boston by announcing two new seasonal routes along with increased services on 13 other routes from Delta’s hub in Boston.
Overall, as part of the announced network expansion, the carrier will operate 65 additional weekly flights from Boston during the Spring Break and Patriot’s Day holiday periods next year.

While the majority of these increased services will operate from April 19th to April 27th of 2025, frequency boosts to some destinations, such as Sarasota (SRQ), will commence as early as December 2024 and will remain operational through till May 2025.
Simple Flying has reached out to Delta to know more about the proposed network boost. Any response received will be updated in the article.
New destinations, new services, and even aircraft upgrades
The two new destinations announced by the carrier are Myrtle Beach (MYR) and Pensacola (PNS) and these routes will be served by Delta only during the weekends. Additionally, Delta’s weekend services to Sarasota will become daily during the Christmas and Spring Break periods, and the route is set to see an aircraft upgrade during this period as well.

Boosting services across the Atlantic
Apart from increasing regional connectivity from Boston, the carrier also recently announced its largest ever Transatlantic schedule for Summer 2025. The airline has announced a series of destinations across Europe and has placed a particular focus on Italy, as the carrier aims to launch services to four Italian destinations from various Delta hubs:
- Catania

With the newly announced Transatlantic schedule, Delta will be taking on its major competition,
United Airlines, which had the largest Transatlantic operations last year
, with Delta coming in second. Additionally, Delta’s passengers will now have more options across the Atlantic than ever, with the airline’s joint venture with Air France-KLM
and Virgin Atlantic
being stronger than ever. Additionally, Delta has also received approval for deeper codesharing and cooperation with SAS
