Delta Air Lines has expanded its Asia-Pacific network with the addition of new direct flights between Japan and two popular vacation destinations - Honolulu and the Pacific island of Palau. The new service to Palau brings to 17 the number of Asia-Pacific destinations offered by Delta. The Nagoya-Honolulu route establishes a new competitive option for customers traveling between the two cities.
“Delta has been a leader in providing service from asia to attractive beach resort destinations including Guam, Saipan and Hawaii for many years,” said Jeff Bernier, managing director — Pacific Sales and Affairs.
“Our new service to Palau and expanded service to Honolulu underscore our commitment to providing more travel options to customers in asia.”
Delta’s new service between its Tokyo-Narita hub and Palau operates four times weekly and is the only service connecting the two airports.
New nonstop service between Nagoya and Honolulu expands Delta's reach from Nagoya where it now offers more service than any U.S. airline, with nonstop flights to six cities — Detroit, Guam, Honolulu, Manila, Saipan and Tokyo-Narita.
The new flights also improve options for customers traveling nonstop between Nagoya and Honolulu by adding a second competitor on the route.
“Delta’s new service provides more travel opportunities to our customers in the Chubu region,” Bernier said.
Delta continues to be committed to the Chubu market, and we will continue to work with Nagoya — Centrair International Airport, local government, businesses and industry partners to offer a broader portfolio to better meet the needs of the local market. The new flights are part of Delta's ongoing expansion in Asia where it recently has seen revenue growth of more than 50 percent.
