Delta Air Lines has announced a new nonstop route connecting Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) to Copenhagen Airport (CPH), set to begin operations in May 2025.<\/p>\n
The service will operate three times weekly, expanding Delta’s European network from MSP to seven direct destinations.<\/p>\n
Joe Esposito, Delta’s Senior Vice President of Network Planning, highlighted the significance of the new route.<\/p>\n
“Delta continues to strengthen its global network and offers unparalleled access to Europe from Minneapolis-St. Paul with this new direct service to Copenhagen, one of Europe’s most vibrant and culturally rich cities,” Mr Esposito said.<\/p>\n
The route is expected to benefit from Delta’s recently announced codeshare agreement with Scandinavian Airlines (SAS), providing customers with access to over 80 additional destinations beyond Copenhagen.<\/p>\n
Brian Ryks, CEO of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, which operates MSP Airport, welcomed the expansion.<\/p>\n
“Many Minnesotans are of Scandinavian heritage, and this new route offers great access to support deeper cultural ties and the continuation of cross-Atlantic business connections between our regions,” Mr Ryks said.<\/p>\n
The service will be operated using Delta’s A330-300 aircraft, featuring Delta One, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin seating options.<\/p>\n
Delta One passengers will enjoy lie-flat seating, premium bedding, and a chef-curated four-course meal, along with new amenity kits from Italian fashion house Missoni.<\/p>\n
Peter Krogsgaard, CCO at Copenhagen Airport, expressed enthusiasm for the new route, noting its potential to attract more American visitors to Copenhagen and provide easy access to destinations across Europe.<\/p>\n
The Minneapolis-St. Paul to Copenhagen route is scheduled to commence in May 2025, offering travelers increased connectivity between the Upper Midwest and Scandinavia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
