Announced earlier this year, Delta’s nonstop, daily flight from Auckland, New Zealand, to Los Angeles will soon take off beginning 30 October 2023. Due to its popularity, this seasonal route will be extended year-round and will operate daily through November to March and three times weekly from April to October.
“New Zealand has shown strong travel demand after we announced the new service between Auckland and Los Angeles,” said Kelly Clive, Delta’s country manager for Australia and New Zealand. “With our extended service through the year, more passengers will be able to enjoy our best-in-class travel experience anytime in the year.”
Starting from April 2024, Delta will operate the Auckland – Los Angeles route with its flagship Airbus A350-900 aircraft, featuring Delta One suites, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+, and Main Cabin services*.
