Delta Airlines has announced it is introducing a new route from Minneapolis-Saint Paul to Dublin. With the addition of this route, which will operate five times a week starting on the 9th of May, 2024, Delta will offer seasonal service to Ireland from three of its U.S. hubs – Atlanta, Boston, and Minneapolis – in addition to year-round service from New York-JFK. Delta is MSP’s largest global carrier, currently operating more than 330 peak-day flights to 120 destinations, with service across the world to cities such as Amsterdam; Cancun, Mexico; Paris; Keflavik, Iceland; London; Montréal; Vancouver, Canada; and more. Delta is also the only carrier providing nonstop service from MSP to Asia, with daily service to Seoul, South Korea, and Tokyo-Haneda. Earlier this year, the airline unveiled its third and largest Delta Sky Club at MSP, featuring seating for more than 450 guests, a first-of-its-kind Sky Deck, and more.
Commenting on the new route, Delta’s Senior Vice President – Network Planning, Joe Esposito said, “Delta continues to build on its longstanding No. 1 position in Minneapolis with another nonstop option for customers traveling overseas. With nearly 10 trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific flights flying direct from the Twin Cities, customers have the utmost choice, coupled with our award-winning customer service when traveling with us.”
Delta’s Minneapolis-Dublin flight will operate on a Boeing 767-300, offering Delta One, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+, and Main Cabin. Delta One customers can stretch out in a lie-flat seat and enjoy premium amenities like artisan-made Someone Somewhere amenity kits, plush bedding made from recycled materials, more beverage options before take-off, chef-curated meals, and decadent desserts like a build-your-own ice cream sundae. Customers flying in Delta Premium Select will have more space to relax in a wider seat with a deeper recline and an adjustable footrest and leg rest, along with an elevated dining experience, premium hand-crafted amenities, and dedicated service touchpoints to further elevate their journey. Customers in every cabin enjoy seat-back screens featuring hours of complimentary premium entertainment via Delta Studio, in-seat power, high-speed Wi-Fi for purchase, and free mobile messaging via iMessage, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger.
