(Barbados Nation) An additional 25 000 seats out of the United States will be available for travellers when Delta Airlines makes a return to Barbados since 2016.
On Saturday, Minister of Tourism and International Transport, Ian Gooding-Edghill, announced a daily service from Atlanta, Georgia, from November 21 and a Saturday only service from New York, commencing December 23.
Both are expected to operate until April 2025.
During a media conference at the BTMI’s office at Warrens, St Michael, Gooding-Edghill said the flights were seasonal, but had the potential to develop in a year-round service.
Delta Airlines last flew into Grantley Adams International Airport from New York in 2016 and Atlanta in 2017.
