Delta Air Lines Resumes Flights To Havana

Delta has returned to Havana. The US carrier has recommenced its operations at José Martí International Airport, with the first flight taking off on April 10th.

The Atlanta-based airline returned to operating in Cuba in 2016 for the first time in 55 years after the United States Federal Government removed restrictions on commercial passenger travel. However, the airline suspended operations with travel restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic in force during 2020. With travel demand now booming, the airline has restored its Cuban connection.

Previously reported last year by Simple Flying, the airline had planned to resurrect its Havana connection with the Airbus A320; however, as per Flightradar24, Delta looks to operate the Boeing 737-8 on the route. Its first flight this Easter weekend was operated by the airline’s 21-year-old 737, registration N3759, reported Simply flying.
