ATLANTA, July 24, 2006 – Business travel will be more convenient this fall as Delta Air Lines adds new point-to-point flights between Boston and Dayton, Ohio; and between Jacksonville and Pensacola, Fla. effective Sept. 11, 2006. Delta Connection carrier Comair will operate one daily round-trip flight in each market using quiet and comfortable Bombardier regional jets.

Additionally, customers in Savannah, Ga. will benefit from new Saturday service to Washington, D.C., effective Sept. 16, 2006, operated by Delta Connection carrier Atlantic Southeast Airlines.

“As the only airline to offer service to customers in all 50 states, Delta is pleased to continue expanding its domestic footprint by offering convenient nonstop flights between popular business destinations,” said Bob Cortelyou, vice president – Network Planning at Delta. “The new service marks our 12th point-to-point market within Florida; 13th destination from the nation’s capital and 28th city from Boston.”

In total, Delta has now added more than 80 new domestic routes since last fall as it restructures its network to improve customers’ options for travel throughout the United States. Delta is the largest U.S. airline in terms of destinations served.

To celebrate the new service, for a limited time, Delta is offering customers special introductory fares between $79 and $99 one way, based on a round-trip purchase. Tickets must be purchased by Aug. 15 and travel completed by Nov. 7 – there are no blackout dates.
