Delta’s Expansion in Latin America Continues with New Daily Nonstop Service from Fort Lauderdale to Santo Domingo
Delta also announces weekly service from Los Angeles to Belize as it continues to grow its West Coast gateways to Mexico and Central America
ATLANTA, March 8, 2007 – Delta Air Lines is continuing its rapid expansion to Latin America and the Caribbean with two new gateways for travel between the United States and two of the hottest destinations in the region. Effective June 7 and June 9, respectively, Delta will add service between Fort Lauderdale and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic* and between Los Angeles and Belize City, Belize*.
“Delta continues to be a leader in growth to Latin American and the Caribbean and we are pleased to add two more gateways for customers to reach two of our most popular destinations this summer,” said Bob Cortelyou, vice president – Network Planning. “Our new destinations from Fort Lauderdale and L.A. are the latest in a series of more than a dozen new Caribbean flights that Delta, along with Delta Connection, has announced, added or applied to serve in the last year.”
With its summer schedule, Delta plans to offer Santo Domingo customers a total of 21 weekly flights – seven to New York-JFK, seven to Atlanta, and seven to Fort Lauderdale, complementing 28 other flights from U.S. gateways to Puerto Plata, Santiago and Punta Cana. Santo Domingo, the second-most populated city in the Antilles region, is located in the south of the country at the shores of the Caribbean Sea, and is the prime driver of the Dominican Republic’s growing popularity as a beachgoer’s paradise.
Meanwhile, with the addition of new flights between Los Angeles and Belize, Delta and Delta Connection carrier Atlantic Southeast Airlines will offer nine weekly flights from Belize City, with daily service to Atlanta (twice on Saturdays) and once weekly to Los Angeles. Belize is a favorite ecotourism destination known for its lush jungles and famous for having the second longest barrier reef in the world.
Delta’s new flights are scheduled as follows:
Delta’s schedule between Fort Lauderdale and Dominican Republic, effective June 7*:
Flight Departs Arrives Frequency
291 Fort Lauderdale at 7:15 a.m. Santo Domingo at 9:15 a.m. Daily
292 Santo Domingo at 7:15 p.m. Fort Lauderdale at 9:20 p.m. Daily
