Delta is to further expand its Asia network next summer with its inaugural direct flights from Seattle to Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport.
The commencement of the new service from June 2024 marks Delta’s first nonstop flight to Tapai from the US and the first Delta operation to the airport since 2017, when its flights routed via Narita International Airport. The daily, year-round service will operate on an A330-990neo.
Describing the new route as marking a “significant stride in enhancing Seattle’s global connectivity,” managing director for global sales Joan Wang added that the addition to Delta’s trans-Pacific portfolio is “poised to make a profound impact on the Seattle market”.
Celebrating its 90th anniversary in Seattle this December, Delta currently offers over 160 daily departures from Seattle to 50 destinations worldwide.
