Delta to Operate Five Daily Flights Between Denver and Los Angeles

Delta Air Lines has confirmed that it will launch five flights per day between Los Angeles International Airport and Denver International Airport, beginning 1 June 2016.

Delta's Los Angeles to Denver flights will be operated by Delta Connection carrier SkyWest Airlines using two-class, 76-seat CRJ-900 aircraft.

"We are relentless in our pursuit of becoming the airline of choice for Angelenos, and Denver is a key addition to our growing portfolio on the West Coast," said Ranjan Goswami, Delta's Vice President – Sales-West. "With five daily flights and our recent investments in T5, Delta has a very competitive offering for customers traveling between L.A. and Denver." 

Delta's Denver service will provide one-stop connecting service to several key international destinations through LAX, including Sydney and Brisbane through Delta's partnership with Virgin Australia as well as Tokyo-Haneda.

The service will also complement Delta's recent growth in Los Angeles, which includes the launch of nonstop service to Shanghai.

In 2016, Delta will begin operating Boeing 717 aircraft on all Delta Shuttle flights between Los Angeles and San Francisco, increase to 10 daily flights to both New York-JFK and Seattle and add a third daily flight to Boston.

Delta's seat growth in Los Angeles has grown more than 99% since 2009, the most of any carrier.
