Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport

A new fifth daytime slot pair for scheduled service to and from Haneda International Airport in Tokyo has been preliminary awarded to Delta Air Lines for flights from Minneapolis-St Paul, ahead of another Delta proposition from Atlanta, American Airlines from Dallas and United Airlines from Newark.

The network growth will be facilitated by the expansion of the airline’s Embraer E-Jet fleet, which is flown on its behalf through a capacity purchase agreement with SkyWest Airlines. The first three E175 aircraft arrived earlier this summer and were introduced into passenger operations at the start of this month, including launching a new link between Portland and St Louis.

The American airline has announced a new summer service to San Juan, Puerto Rico to commence on May 3, 2015.

Already serving both Washington Reagan National and Baltimore Washington International airports, the carrier will launch 68 weekly flights to 14 destinations from Dulles International Airport from August this year.
