Delta’s overall winter service from Seattle to leisure destinations includes:

• Larger Boeing 737-800 aircraft on flights to Las Vegas and Phoenix, offering 160 seats with seat-back entertainment on each flight with 16 first class seats, 36 Delta Comfort+ seats, and 108 Main Cabin seats
• Five daily flights to four destinations in Hawaii, including Honolulu, Maui, Kona and Lihue
• 11 flights each week to Orlando
• Convenient flights to Mexico beach resorts, with daily service to Los Cabos, and four weekly flights each to Puerto Vallarta and Cancun
• Expanded access to popular destinations in the southwest, with additional departures to Palm Springs, Calif., San Diego, and Tucson, Ariz.
• New year-round service to Bozeman, Mont.*, with daily service from Dec. 21 through Jan. 5 and twice daily service starting January 6
• New daily service to Tampa beginning on March 11

The winter and spring growth continue a trend for Delta in Seattle, where the airline grew by five percent this summer, primarily through larger aircraft on existing routes. Service from Seattle to destinations in the West region expanded through additional seats, with peak-day seats to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Diego and San Jose up 23 percent on average over summer 2018. Delta also launched its popular Airbus A220 aircraft on the Seattle-San Jose route and launched additional A220 routes this fall, while the new Airbus A330-900neo, featuring the airline’s next-generation Delta One Suite and Delta Premium Select cabin, debuted on Seattle-Shanghai in July and has since expanded to the Seoul-Incheon and Tokyo-Narita routes.

Delta continues to be Seattle’s fastest-growing carrier, having added nearly 100 new departures and more than doubled the number of peak-day seats offered since 2014. The airline launched service in April from Seattle to Osaka, its fifth destination in Asia and a significant addition to the Delta and Korean Air trans-Pacific joint venture partnership. The U.S. Department of Transportation recently reached a decision to award Delta five more slots at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, with service from Seattle expected to begin in summer 2020.
