Delta has announced plans for a new seasonal route between Minneapolis St-Paul and Dublin for summer 2024.
The five-times-weekly service will launch on 9 May next year, with Boeing 767-300 flights departing Minneapolis at 2120, and returning from Dublin at 1200.
Delta will go head-to-head with Aer Lingus on the Minneapolis St-Paul – Dublin route, with the Irish carrier this week having announced plans to resume flights to the US city from 29 April, 2024.
