Delta Air Lines is set to operate a significant number of flights on one of the busiest routes in the U.S. This route connects Los Angeles (LAX) and New York (JFK) and spans approximately 2,475 miles. Throughout October, Delta Air Lines plans to deploy mid-sized widebody aircraft, including the Boeing 757-200, Boeing 767-300, and Boeing 767-400. Additionally, there will be one flight utilizing the Airbus A330-900neo.

The Boeing 757-200 will run almost daily, totaling 33 flights and 5,544 available seats this month. Specifically, these aircraft operate daily from LAX to JFK, except for Saturdays, which have no scheduled flights. Sundays will feature two flights. Notably, Delta Air Lines remains the largest global operator of the Boeing 757.

In contrast, Delta has scheduled just one Airbus A330-900neo flight, which offers 281 seats. The reason for this limited operation is unclear, especially after a previous incident in September involving the A330-900neo. This aircraft is one of Delta’s newer models, with an average age of only 2.7 years.

Delta plans to use the Boeing 767-400 for 38 flights this month, providing a total of 9,044 seats. According to flight schedules, these aircraft will operate daily except on Sundays. The precise weekly distribution of flights remains unclear, as some weeks may feature additional services. Delta currently maintains 20 active Boeing 767-400 aircraft.

However, the bulk of available seats will come from the Boeing 767-300, which has 243 scheduled flights. This totals 51,823 seats for October. Weekly, Delta Air Lines has planned 58 flights, ranging from 6 to 9 flights each day. For instance, Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays will have nine flights, while Tuesdays and Wednesdays will offer eight. Saturdays will feature six flights.

Delta operates 40 Boeing 767-300 aircraft, with one currently parked. Additionally, these aircraft are among the oldest in the fleet, averaging 28.3 years, compared to the Delta average fleet age of 15.3 years. The only older aircraft type is the Airbus A320-200, averaging 28.8 years.

Overall, Delta Air Lines continues to provide robust service on the Los Angeles-New York route, ensuring plenty of options for travelers this October. Lastly, don’t forget to check WentWorld.com and follow our social media channels for ultimate travel tips and destination guides.
