Delta goes daily to Cape Town
Delta Air Lines is expanding its South Africa network, introducing a new, seasonal ‘triangular’ route from Atlanta-Johannesburg-Cape Town-Atlanta
It begins December 2, 2022.
The four-times-weekly route will complement nonstop service from both Cape Town and Johannesburg to Atlanta and mean both cities will have daily operations to the US by the end of this year.
“As demand for travel increases, we’ll be offering our largest-ever schedule between South Africa and the U.S. this summer,” said Jimmy Eichelgruen, Delta’s Director – Sales for Africa, Middle East & India.
“Thanks to this added connectivity, customers will have access to more than 160 cities in North and South America.”
All of Delta’s South Africa flights are operated using Airbus A350-900 aircraft with four classes: Delta One, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin.
All customers will have access to Wi-Fi onboard for purchase and Delta’s seatback entertainment, while being able to charge their own devices with in-seat power and USB ports.
The new route offers international travel only – customers are not able to travel domestically from Johannesburg to Cape Town.
