Delta Air Lines is set to introduce Austin's first-ever nonstop service to Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, commencing on 27 March 2027. This new route marks a significant milestone as Delta becomes the only US airline to offer direct flights from Austin to Europe. The service will operate daily during the summer season using Delta's Airbus A330-900, providing passengers with a premium travel experience.
The introduction of this route not only offers direct access to Paris but also opens up one-stop connections to nearly 70 destinations across Europe, India, and Africa through Delta's partnership with Air France-KLM. Joe Esposito, Delta's Executive Vice President - Chief Commercial Officer, highlighted the importance of this development, stating, "Launching Austin's first nonstop service to Paris is a defining milestone, but it's just one part of our broader investment in the region."
Passengers on the Airbus A330-900neo will have the option to choose from four distinct seating products: Delta One, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort, and Delta Main. Delta One features fully lie-flat seats and luxury amenities, whilst Delta Premium Select offers enhanced comfort with wider seats and additional legroom. Delta Comfort and Delta Main provide spacious seating and personalised entertainment options.
Through its joint venture with Air France-KLM and Virgin Atlantic, Delta will offer up to 10 weekly nonstop flights between Austin and Europe during peak summer. From Paris, travellers can seamlessly connect to various destinations across Europe, India, and Africa, enhancing Austin's global connectivity
