Delta Air Lines has launched Edinburgh flights from main hub Atlanta.
The daily nonstop service joins existing daily flights to Edinburgh from New York-JFK and Boston.

“These Edinburgh flights give our customers more than 200 onward destinations across the United States and beyond,” said Paul Hassenstab, Director Sales EMEA and India.
