Delta launching Seoul flights from Atlanta

By
Sept 7, 2016

Delta Air Lines will launch flights from Atlanta to Seoul starting next June, adding to the route operated by its partner Korean Air.

Atlanta-based Delta will operate daily Atlanta-Seoul flights on 291-seat Boeing 777-200LR jets starting June 3.

Korean Air already operates daily Seoul-Atlanta flights on Boeing 777-300ER jets. Delta already operates flights to Seoul from Detroit and Seattle.

As Delta adds the new flights to Seoul, it is expanding its "code-share" marketing agreement with Korean Air, which will enable passengers to connect through Seoul to 32 other destinations in Asia.
