By expanding flights around Patriots’ Day, Delta is not only serving local demand but also stimulating the hospitality, tourism, and retail sectors across both New England and the destination cities.
“Delta’s growth at Boston Logan reflects our commitment to offering unparalleled service and travel opportunities,” said a Delta spokesperson. “Our expanded flight schedule for Patriots’ Day aligns with our goal to provide flexible, reliable options that support our loyal Boston customers and help them connect with the destinations they love.”
Strategic Growth in the U.S. Domestic Market
